Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Lord (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 December 2010. It occurred during Backbench debate on General matters Christmas Adjournment.


General matters

I could not agree more, and I think the Government's proposals tread a fine line in respect of the issues my hon. Friend mentions. Not only would Surrey have 371,000 people per courthouse, but Surrey's population is increasing, by almost 20% over the next 23 years according to Surrey county council. I will also send figures to the Minister showing that Surrey already has one of the highest numbers of crimes per courthouse of any police authority outside London.
