Public Accounts Committee

2018 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 22: Courts Service

9:00 am

Mr. Peter Mullan:

The Deputy is right that it would be useful information for the courts system to have. District Court judges can dismiss or strike out cases for a myriad of reasons. It is fair to say that recording those would cause logistical difficulties for us in the short term but the Deputy is absolutely right in saying that somebody should be recording this information.

We might be the obvious example in some respects, but it would mean that we would need to improve our systems which would require investment.
