Written answers

As outlined to the Deputy in my response to Parliamentary Question No. 331 of 04 November 2021, the Courts Service system does not record the reason a case was struck out unless the Judge includes the reason in their order, and for this reason, the Courts Service cannot provide the information sought by the Deputy. 

As such, the Courts Service does not hold complete statistical information on the reasons for any case being struck out and the statistics as requested by the Deputy cannot be provided.
