Courts and Tribunals: Closures
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many courts and tribunals have been closed since 2015.
Answered by Sarah Sackman
Since 2015, 90 courts and 4 tribunals have been permanently closed. All of these closures took place under the previous Government.
The figures do not include integrations, where workload remained in the local area by transferring to another building in close proximity, or courts that are temporarily closed.
