Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Heidi Alexander and Bradley Thomas

Tuesday 10th September 2024 Commons Chamber

[The Minister of State, Ministry of Justice (Heidi Alexander)]

As I said to the hon. Member for Wimbledon (Mr Kohler), we will do everything we can to ensure swift justice for the victims of Grenfell. We plan for the Crown court to sit for at least 105,000 days this financial year, and we will do more to increase the speed with which cases are heard in the Crown court.

[Bradley Thomas (Bromsgrove) (Con)]
