This bulletin presents the latest statistics on judicial diversity for England and Wales, covering:
- court and tribunal judges, non-legal members of tribunals and magistrates in post as at 1 April 2022
- judicial selection exercises completed during the financial year ending 31 March 2022, with additional data on judicial selection exercises completed between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2022
- legal professions as at 1 April 2022
These statistics provide the main source for monitoring patterns and trends in judicial diversity, and bring together in one place diversity statistics for those in post, during selection and for the legal professions which are the source of much of the judiciary.
The supporting user guide and quality statement provide background information on the judiciary, definitions, methodology used, the quality of the statistics and other useful sources of related information.
Statistics for years prior to 2020 were published in the Judicial Office judicial diversity statistics and by the Judicial Appointments Commission.
