View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 127, 131 and 132 together.
As the Deputy is aware, under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management of the courts is the responsibility of the Courts Service which is independent in exercising its functions, which include the provision of information on the courts system.
However, in order to be of assistance to the Deputy, I have had enquiries made and information, to the extent that is available, is being compiled. I will respond to the Deputy as soon as possible.
