Written Question
Thursday 19th November 2015
Asked by:
David Mowat (Conservative - Warrington South)
Question
to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, on how many days the Crown Court sat in each court chamber at Warrington in (a) 2013, (b) 2014 and (c) 2015.
Answered by Shailesh Vara
The information requested can be found in the table below.
Crown Court sittings at Warrington (days):
Period | Courtroom 1 | Courtroom 2 | County Court courtroom |
January to December 2013 | 132 | 120 | 2 |
January to December 2014 | 105 | 182 | 1 |
January to September 2015 | 87 | 104 | 4 |
There are two dedicated Crown courtrooms in Warrington Combined Court, which also houses the County Court. The final column therefore sets out the number of days sat in County Court accommodation when, exceptionally, the Crown courtrooms were unavailable.
Written Question
Thursday 11th June 2015
Asked by:
David Mowat (Conservative - Warrington South)
Question
to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to the inquest into the death of Clara Tully, if he will bring forward proposals to allow inquests on infants who die during labour.
Answered by Caroline Dinenage
Coroners must investigate all deaths which are sudden, unnatural, violent, or of unknown cause. This can include deaths of newborn babies such as in the tragic case of Clara Tully. Coroners cannot by law investigate cases in which a child has not lived independently of its mother, such as stillbirths. They can, however, open an investigation if there is any doubt over whether there was independent life, once they have received a report of the case. There are also hospital and medical investigations into stillbirths.
The Chief Coroner, HHJ Peter Thornton QC, is considering actions to improve consistency and good practice.
