Director of Public Prosecutions Alison Saunders is consulting on a revised approach to bringing non-recent cases to court where a nominal penalty is likely.

Consultation opens on reforming the law of apologies in civil proceedings.
Measure will outlaw biometric categorisation systems based on sensitive characteristics and untargeted scraping of facial images from CCTV footage.
