The below Parliamentary question was asked by Sadiq Khan on 2015-02-20.

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, what proportion of local magistrate advisory boards were (a) women, (b) men, (c) of BAME origin and (d) aged over 65 on 1 April (i) 1989, (ii) 1994, (iii) 2000, (iv) 2005, (v) 2010 and (vi) 2014.

Mr Shailesh Vara

I have interpreted ‘Local magistrate advisory boards’ to mean Advisory Committees on Justices of the Peace, the bodies responsible for recruiting and selecting magistrates in England and Wales.

We encourage applications from people from all walks of life who have the necessary skills, and we will continue to work to ensure that our magistrates reflect the make-up of modern Britain.

Diversity data for the Advisory Committees’ members is not recorded for the requested years prior to 2005. The available data is shown below.

Year (1 April)	Female	Male	BAME	Age over 65
2005	46%	54%	7%	36%
2010	47%	53%	9%	60%
2014	48%	52%	10%	53%

No payments have been made over the period 2010-11 to 2013-14 to GEO Amey, Working Links, A4E, MTC Amey or GEO Group.

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Sadiq Khan on 2015-02-20.

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, who the members are of each local magistrate advisory board.

Mr Shailesh Vara

I have interpreted ‘Local magistrate advisory boards’ to mean Advisory Committees on Justices of the Peace, the bodies responsible for recruiting and selecting magistrates in England and Wales.

To enable their work to be informed by a range of knowledge and experience, Advisory Committees are composed of both magistrates and non-magistrates. At least one third of each Committee’s members should be non-magistrates.

The attached table contains the names of each Committee’s members and indicates which of those members are magistrates.

Mr Francis Maude

The Prime Minister’s Office and the Deputy Prime Minister’s Office are an integral part of the Cabinet Office.

As part of my department’s transparency programme, any spend over £25,000 is available on the Department’s website. Since January 2011, all contracts over £10,000 in value are published on Contracts Finder (http://www.contractsfinder.co.uk/).

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Sadiq Khan on 2015-02-20.

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, with reference to his Department’s press release Damian Green: new rehabilitation powers for magistrates, published on 25 March 2014, when he plans to publish a White Paper on magistrates’ reform.

Mike Penning

The Government has no plans to publish a White Paper on magistrates’ reform before the General Election. The role of magistrates will be reviewed again once our rehabilitation and summary justice reforms have bedded down.
