Justice Select Committee

The Justice Select Committee is a group of Members of Parliament (MPs) in the UK who examine how justice-related government departments, like the Ministry of Justice, are running. They review policies, financial spending, and operational efficiency, and hold inquiries to gather evidence from experts and the public. Their purpose is to ensure accountability, transparency, and effectiveness in the justice system, including courts, prisons, and legal services. The committee’s findings and recommendations can influence government decisions and improvements in the justice sector.
