Minister defends single justice procedure for Covid-19 offences

By Monidipa Fouzder2021-04-28T09:32:00+01:00 The government has dismissed concerns about the single justice procedure’s suitability for dealing with Covid-related offences, arguing that the controversial process is more transparent than the traditional court procedure. Giving evidence to the Commons justice select committee on Covid-19 and the criminal law, justice minister Lord Wolfson of Tredegar QC said criticism of the single justice procedure was ‘misplaced’. The single justice procedure was introduced in 2015 to deal with low-level non-imprisonable cases. Cases are dealt with by a legal adviser sitting with a single magistrate out of court. Last year the attorney general passed statutory instruments enabling offences under different coronavirus regulations to be prosecuted through the procedure.
