Mr. Jonathan Evans

HM magistrates courts service inspectorate was established in January 1993 to inspect and report to the Lord Chancellor on the administration and organisation of all the magistrates courts committees in England and Wales, and is currently undertaking its first cycle of inspections. Doncaster MCC will be inspected, on dates yet to be arranged, between April 1997 and December 1998, with a post-inspection review to follow no later than 18 months from the end of the inspection. The hon. Member will receive a copy of the inspection report, once published.
