The Government has also noted the discussion in the Committee\u2019s report of legislation currently before this Parliament.

The UK is committed to fulfilling its international human rights obligations. This includes the obligation to implement judgments of the European Court of Human Rights against the UK. Currently, only 14 judgments against the UK are still under the supervision of the Committee of Ministers. This is lower than almost all member States with similar population size. At the end of 2022, outstanding judgments and decisions against the UK made up only 0.23% of the total [14 out of 6,112]. We support the Council of Europe\u2019s work to improve the effectiveness of the tools available to the Committee of Ministers in the supervision of the execution of judgments.<\/p>"}

For the purposes of the Prisoner and Escort Custody Services contract, a late arrival at court occurs if, through the actions or inactions of the contractor, a prisoner is not available in the courtroom at the required time, and court proceedings are consequently delayed.<\/p>
The table below shows the number of prisoners escorted to court by both suppliers and their overall performance against the Contract Delivery Indicator.<\/p>
