Question to the Ministry of Justice:

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what assessment she has made of the effect of fee increases in tribunals and courts in the last five years on numbers of applications and appeals.

The details of all court fee increases since 2010 can be found in the relevant secondary legislation, which is available on http://www.legislation.gov.uk/

When we announce our intention to change court and tribunal fees we routinely publish, alongside the Government response to consultation, an Impact Assessment setting out our assessment of the impacts of those changes, these are also available on the www.gov.uk website. We keep our court and tribunal fees policy under regular review.
