Magistrates: Boston
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many justices of the peace served at Boston Magistrates court in each of the last five years.
Answered by Sarah Sackman
HMCTS deploys Magistrates (Justices of the Peace) who are allocated to a bench and are then placed on a rota to sit as a panel. Boston Magistrates would be served by the Lincolnshire Bench and the numbers on that bench are below for the period stated:
Year | No. of Magistrates |
1/4/24 – 3/12/24 | 170 |
1/4/23- 31/3/24 | 182 |
1/4/22- 31/3/23 | 161 |
1/4/21 – 31/3/22 | 158 |
1/4/20 – 31/3/21 | 159 |
1/4/19 – 31/3/20 | 174 |
