Lammy Review published

On 8th September 2017, David Lammy MP published the findings of his independent review into the treatment of, and outcomes for Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic individuals in the criminal justice system.

Over the last 18 months the Lammy Review has conducted extensive research across each aspect of the criminal justice system, and considered the views of over 300 organisations and interested parties who responded to the Call for Evidence.

The Review’s findings are underpinned by the latest available evidence; and supported by further research and analysis that was been specially commissioned. The Report makes 35 recommendations to help improve on fundamental principles of trust, fairness and responsibility which are key to addressing racial disparity in the criminal justice system.
