How we work with the government
We are a non-departmental public body sponsored by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ). We play a big part in helping the MoJ achieve its aims of:
- promoting justice
- protecting the public
- increasing confidence in justice
- providing access to justice for all
- upholding rights
- safeguarding and modernising our constitution.
The Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice is accountable to Parliament for our activities and performance.
The MoJ agrees its overarching Public Service Agreement targets with the Treasury. We in turn set our objectives in discussion with the MoJ.
