To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if he will assess the merits of having indictable-only offences being heard directly in the Crown Court, without commencing in Magistrates Courts.
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if he will assess the merits of having indictable-only offences being heard directly in the Crown Court, without commencing in Magistrates Courts.
The Prisons and Courts Bill, which was introduced in the last Parliament but fell when the General Election was called, included a measure removing the need for defendants charged with indictable-only offences to appear before a magistrates’ court simply to be told that they were being sent to the Crown Court to be tried. Instead, the Bill would have allowed such defendants to be notified in writing (including online) of their being sent to the Crown Court for trial. Although all offences would continue to commence in the magistrates’ court there would no longer be the need for a defendant charged with an indictable-only offence to first appear before that court, unless it was necessary for another reason, such as (for example) determining the defendant’s remand status. The Government introduced the Courts and Tribunals (Judiciary and Functions of Staff) Bill in the House of Lords on 23 May 2018 and, as the Justice Secretary announced at the time, the Government will be bringing forward other courts measures from the Prisons and Courts Bill as soon as parliamentary time allows.

British subjects who travel overseas to participate in armed conflict abroad can potentially be prosecuted under a wide range of terrorism and criminal law offences available under existing UK law. As such, a new offence of participation in foreign military organisations which are not members of NATO, is not currently under consideration.
The Prime Minister has just announced proposals to further strengthen our capability to deal with the increased threat from foreign fighters and British-born jihadists who seek to harm the UK.

The use of cautions is at its lowest level for more than five years, as is the number of cautions issued to those who have a previous criminal record. However, the public and victims have a right to expect that people who commit serious crimes should be brought before a court. On 3 April 2013 we launched a review into the use of cautions which will focus on the use of cautions for serious offences and persistent offenders. Among other things, the review will examine whether there are some offences for which the use of simple cautions is generally inappropriate, the reasons why multiple cautions are given to some criminals and the difference in the use of cautions by police force areas. The review is a significant step to ensuring that cautions are used correctly, in the interests of justice, and command the confidence of the public.
The number of cautions issued for indictable only and triable either way offences, and the caution rate by type of offence in each police force area in England and Wales in each year from 2002 to 2011 (latest data available), can be viewed in the tables. Statistics on out-of-court disposals in 2012 are planned for publication in May 2013.
