Each magistrate in England and Wales is assigned to a local justice area. I have therefore interpreted the reference to \u2018local authority area\u2019 in the question to mean local justice area.<\/p>

<\/p>

Table 1 provides the number of magistrates in each local justice area along with their gender and ethnic breakdown.<\/p>

<\/p>

The number of magistrates recruited in each local justice area is dictated by the business needs of the magistrates\u2019 courts. Due in part to falling crime levels, the workload of the magistrates\u2019 court has reduced in recent years. Table 2 provides the number of magistrates recruited in each local justice area in the last five years.<\/p>
