Those whose cases involve significant offending such as fraud, drugs offences, rape and serious violence will not form part of a new mid-tier Court. They will still be in the backlog. We hope that the Government listens to all those bodies, including the Public Accounts Committee, who have raised the fact that there is inaction whilst the Government waits for the outcome of the Leveson Review.

We hope that positive action is taken now to ease the suffering of those who continue to wait.
