The idea
Change Theft shop/stall & shoplift to Summery Trial Only – waste of taxpayers money allowing indictable to crown court. I have seen the amount of work and cost to all criminal justice agencies for theft of such minor items eg £7.50 bottle of whiskey when the case is already evidentially sound. Completely insane and will also make room in the crown courts to deal with more serious offences.
Why is it important?
Save the Taxpayer millions each year, waste of Criminal Justice agencies funds. fit punishment for crime, free up space in the Crown Courts for more appropriate cases.
