Courts: Translation Services
Justice

To ask the Secretary of State for Justice what the cost was of translation and interpreter services used by (a) the courts system, (b) Crown courts and (c) magistrates courts in (i) Bury St Edmunds, (ii) Suffolk, (iii) the East of England and (iv) England and Wales in each of the last five years.

Shailesh Vara (The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Justice; North West Cambridgeshire, Conservative)
To provide you with the information requested on overall spend for the last five years in (a) the courts system, (b) Crown courts and (c) magistrates courts in (i) Bury St Edmunds, (ii) Suffolk, (iii) the East of England and (iv) England and Wales, would exceed the disproportionate cost threshold.
The Department does not hold centrally all of the information that has been requested. In order to provide the information we would be required to obtain a number of large reports from individual locations. The relevant data must then be manually extracted and linked to a timesheet and collated.

Home Department

David Ruffley (Bury St Edmunds, Conservative)

NHS: Translation Services
Health

David Ruffley (Bury St Edmunds, Conservative)
To ask the Secretary of State for Health what the cost was of translation and interpreter services used by each individual NHS trust in England and Wales in each of the last five years.

Norman Lamb (The Minister of State, Department of Health; North Norfolk, Liberal Democrat)
This information is not held centrally. National health service organisations have duties under equality legislation which include making sure that their communities can understand information about NHS services and that patients and clinicians can communicate with each other. However, the Department would encourage NHS organisations to be efficient and save money where possible by working together and sharing resources.
