Vol. 411 No. 4
132 Mrs. Fennell asked the Minister for Justice the total allocation of funds made through the Criminal Injuries Tribunal in (1) 1988, (2) 1989 and (3) 1990; if there are vacancies of personnel in the tribunal; and the reason the 1989 report of the tribunal has not yet been published.
The following amounts were paid by the Criminal Injuries Compensation Tribunal in the last year: 1988, £5,932,751.89; 1989, £2,340,558.18; 1990, £5,984,194.27 (provisional).
There are two vacancies existing in the membership of the Criminal Injuries Compensation Tribunal. I intend to appoint persons to fill these vacancies at an early date.
The report of the tribunal for 1989 has been submitted to my Department and arrangements are being made to have it published shortly.
