Book excerpt: This paper builds on earlier policy papers: 'Getting it right for victims and witnesses' (Cm. 8288, 2012, ISBN 9780101828826) and 'Swift and sure justice' (Cm. 8388, 2012, ISBN 9780101838825). It sets out how the Government plans to deliver a criminal justice system (CJS) designed to achieve a set of outcomes: to reduce crime; to reduce re-offending; to punish offenders; to protect the public; to provide victims with reparation; to increase public confidence, and to ensure the system is fair and just. Supporting these outcomes is: a digital CJS; a CJS which is faster and right first time; a transparent and responsive CJS; care and consideration for victims and witnesses; the right response to crime; working in partnership. Individual chapters expand on these areas, and target dates for completion of key actions are set out. The Criminal Justice Board will maintain an overview of all major reforms to the CJS, ensuring that they form a coherent package, refresh the action plan in summer 2014 and publish an update to show progress made.
