<p>The Judicial Conduct Investigations Office (JCIO) publishes statements, on behalf of the Lord Chancellor and the Lord Chief Justice, about judicial disciplinary cases which have resulted in a sanction on its website at: <a href="https://judicialconduct.judiciary.gov.uk/disciplinary-statements/2020/" target="_blank">https://judicialconduct.judiciary.gov.uk/disciplinary-statements/2020/</a></p><p>Additionally, for 2013/14-2018/19, data about judicial office holders subject to disciplinary sanction is available in the JCIO’s annual reports at: <a href="https://judicialconduct.judiciary.gov.uk/reports-publications/" target="_blank">https://judicialconduct.judiciary.gov.uk/reports-publications/</a></p><p>The annual reports of the JCIO and its predecessor, the Office for Judicial Complaints, covering the years 2006/7-2018/19 are available in the Library of the House. Data on disciplinary action in the reports is broken down by the following types of judicial office holders - the courts judiciary, tribunals judiciary, coroners and magistrates, and sanctions imposed.</p><p>The publicly available information does not break the data down by office (Lay Magistrates, Deputy District Judges etc), but the action needed to obtain this information would give rise to a disproportionate cost.</p> |
