Her Majesty's Courts Service is an executive agency of the Department for Constitutional Affairs. The purpose of Her Majesty's Courts Service is the delivery of justice. The Agency is responsible for the running of most of the courts and tribunals in England and Wales i.e. Crown, county and Appeals, and provides the necessary services to the judiciary and court users to ensure the Courts' impartial and efficient operation. The Agency also has responsibility for advice to the Secretary of State on his responsibilities in relation to Magistrates' Courts, although they remain a locally managed service as defined in statute. As the key service-delivery arm of the Department, Her Majesty's Courts Service plays an important part in implementing the Secretary of State's agenda for a modern justice system.
