HC Deb 09 December 1976 vol 922 c321W
Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Attorney-General (1) how many county court cases in which summonses are issued are settled before reaching trial;

(2) how many High Court cases in which writs are issued are settled before reaching trial.

The Attorney-General

The court is informed when a case is settled only when this takes place during, or immediately before, the hearing. Figures for all cases settled are not, therefore, available.
