THE TIMES LAW AWARDS

“To no one will we sell, to no one will we deny or delay right or justice.” Magna Carta clause 40. 

Is the state financing the criminal justice system properly and, if not, is privatisation a possible solution? Would this mean selling justice? 

Magna Carta clause 40 stands as an ancient bulwark against State tyranny, but although the administration of criminal justice is one of the fundamental powers of a State, it is also a responsibility. The question for this year’s Times Law Essay Competition asks whether the State is discharging this responsibility and if not, whether it can delegate it to the private sector. 

There are more than £10,000 of prizes on offer to the six finalists, whose entries will be read by the Lord Chancellor and senior members of the judiciary, as well as the editor of The Times. This is an opportunity for student commentators to examine the issues facing the criminal justice system today, and the potential solutions. 

Submit your entries here.
