A Spring Update from #HarrowCrownCourt:-

Dock capacity:

"This is improving. We can now have 5 defendants in courts 3 & 5. We do not have a date, however, for the screens in counsel's row to allow for up to 9 counsel in these court rooms."

(1/20) Cells capacity:

"This is still limited to 7 men and 2 women (or a child/young person) a day."

Interpreters:

"There are headsets for all interpreters so there is no need for an interpreter to go into the dock."
