Wandsworth County Court and Blackfriars Crown Court: proposal on their future

Overview

The consultation seeks the views of everyone with an interest in the work at these courts.

This consultation is being conducted in line with the Consultation Principles issued by the Cabinet Office and will run for 10 weeks.
