§ Sir Terence HigginsTo ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department, if he will examine the reply from the courts agency to the letter from the right hon. Member for Worthing regarding the Court Service; and if he will investigate why a copy of the court judgment has still not been produced. [28711]
Mr. John M. TaylorThe question concerns a specific operational matter on which the chief executive of the Court Service is best placed to provide an answer, and I have accordingly asked the chief executive to reply directly to the right hon. Member.
Letter from M. D. Heubner to Sir Terrence Higgins MP, dated 14 June 1995:
The Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department, has asked me to reply to your question about the reasons why a copy of a court judgment has not yet been produced.Judgment in the case of Fake-v-Jarvis will be delivered by the Registrar in the Court of Appeal (Civil Division) on Monday 19 June 1995.The Registrar very much regrets the delay which is due to a very heavy workload. As I explained when I wrote to you on 22 May I am currently considering ways in which the pressure on the Registrar can be alleviated.
