question – answered on 5th September 2019.
Yasmin Qureshi Shadow
Minister (Justice)
To ask the Secretary of
State for Justice, pursuant to the Answer of 15 July 2019 to Question 275723 on
translation services, what assessment he has made of the reasons for the
increase in expenditure between the 2015-16 and 2016-17 financial years.
Wendy Morton The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Justice
Spend on language services increased in October 2016 as a result of an
intentional move by the Ministry of Justice to increase the quality of the
services. A new set of contracts commenced in 2016 which included various
improvements based on independent recommendations made about the previous
contract. These changes included a more robust performance management regime,
improved data and the implementation of a new quality assurance service.
Spend on Language Services
is expected to fluctuate due to the nature of the contracts being demand led.
