The Attorney-General and I maintain an active overview of the performance of the CPS, and carefully consider all representations received. In addition to the CPS’ published Performance Management Information, HM Crown Prosecution Inspectorate reports to the Attorney-General on particular aspects of CPS performance and on its regular inspections of each CPS area. To ensure that we have an opportunity to discuss any performance issues, as well as wider policy questions, we have frequent meetings with the DPP and chief executive. The CPS has, of course, a full complaints procedure, which the Attorney-General oversees, and MPs have the opportunity to raise with me any aspect of the CPS’ performance which causes them concern.
