Oral answer to question provided on Thursday, 24 May 2007 in the House of Commons, by Mike O'Brien (Labour), Solicitor General.
Prosecution Policy
- Answer
-
Both the CPS and the armed service prosecutors will apply the same evidential test—namely, whether there is enough evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction—and then decide whether there is a public interest in prosecuting. In the case of the armed service prosecutors, that includes the service interest.
- Question
- What assessment he has made of consistency of prosecution policy between the Army Prosecuting Authority and the Crown Prosecution Service.
