Judicial and Legal Diversity Board
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, how many staff from his Department are working to support the Judicial and Legal Diversity Board; and which teams they have been drawn from.
Answered by Sarah Sackman
The Judicial and Legal Diversity Board is supported by an existing team within the Ministry of Justice Policy Group, which is responsible for delivering the Lord Chancellor’s statutory duty to encourage judicial diversity. This team provides secretariat support to the Board alongside its wider responsibilities.
Officials from across the Department and from Judicial Office also support the delivery of the Board ensuring that the appropriate expertise is available as needed.
