Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, which courts have closed since 1 January 2009; on what dates those court buildings were sold; and what the value was of each of those sales.
The sale of surplus buildings provides important funding for the programme of reform which is transforming our courts and tribunals. We make sure that the sale of former court buildings maximises the amount we can reinvest in modernisation.
The information requested could only be obtained at disproportionate cost.
