Proceeding contribution from Karl Turner (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 March 2026. It occurred during Debate on bill on Courts and Tribunals Bill.

Courts and Tribunals Bill

I have just looked at the recent stats. In 2025 there were 67 ethnic minority circuit judges and 42 judges of unknown ethnicity, while there were 637 white judges, the vast majority of whom were men. What does my hon. Friend say about that?
