We are currently working closely with the Ministry of Justice on the Justice Impact Test to estimate the economic impacts on the justice system. We will continue to update the Economic Impact Assessment after pre-legislative scrutiny concludes and in the light of new evidence and analysis, as is usual in all policy processes.
