Citizens' Juries

Lord Hanningfield
asked Her Majesty's Government:

How many citizens' juries they held in Essex, or involved residents of the county, in (a) 2007 and (b) 2008. [HL5975]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Ministry of Justice (Lord Bach)
Individual government departments are responsible for engagement around their own policy areas and as such hold their own citizens' juries as appropriate. The Ministry of Justice has not held any citizens' juries during 2007 or 2008, including in Essex.
