Proposals to cut jury trials defended before showdown
The Chronicle
|March 11, 2026
JUSTICE Secretary David Lammy has defended plans to curb access to jury trials as the Courts and Tribunals Bill faces a backbench rebellion in the Commons.
-
Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Secretary David Lammy
Mr Lammy says the changes are necessary to keep the criminal justice system running, and hopes the courts backlog will start to come down by the next general election.
The government wants to scale back the right for a defendant to stand trial in front of a jury in an effort to speed up the system, including introducing judge-only trials for some offences.
Magistrates' powers will be increased so they can hand down sentences of up to 18 months' imprisonment, up from 12 months currently, so they will also be able to deal with more cases.
