As if the administration of justice wasn't in enough trouble already

A glance around the treasury figures (which are presented in a more difficult to understand fashion every year) suggests that Min Justice comes in at just under 9Bn pa plus a further 715M for the Law Officers departments. Not too much in the context of recent government spending...

In particular it would seem the 46M IT project that is fairly desperately needed is headed for the lavatory.

And yet the one IT project they could scrap, which would also serve as a political vote winner (i.e. the ridiculous ID Card system, which won't work, will run over budget and is a gross infringement of civil liberties) will be kept going.

Nice one, Gordy.

Well cutting the £46m IT project should save at least £100m...

True that.

... and the main targets for savings are children and immigrants.

Remind me again which party is in Government?

Oh, you mean the IT project which was an essential plank of the Woolf reforms?
