As the Deputy will be aware, under the provisions of the Courts Service Act 1998, management of the courts is the responsibility of the Courts Service. The Act provides that the Service is independent in the performance of its functions, including the provision of information on the courts system.
However, in order to be of assistance, I have had enquiries made with the Courts Service and the information sought is set out in the table below.
Offence | 2014 | Jan - Sept 2015 |
---|---|---|
No Insurance Owner | 8 | 4 |
No Insurance User | 242 | 181 |
Note 1: Report includes summonses and charge sheets
Note 2: Report includes offences listed but may not yet be finalised
