Any ideas on the number of Judges in Mega City One.

So, only 1 support staff for every 4 officers, not 10 for every 1 as mentioned above.

Mmmm, but Justice Dept includes all sorts of other roles: prison guards, diplomatic corps, defence and intelligence, tech and medical research etc.  Plus street Judges are up and about 23.75 hours a day 7 days a week, while support and auxillary staff seem to lead more normal lives, so you'd need at least three times as many per individual Judge.

Ok. Fair enough. NHS in London employs about 80,000???, shall we use BT as tech support?

The current assumptions about a lot of the supports involved in big public/private sector organizations is that it will be automated. No big leap to see this in MC1 (the robot lawyer is an endearing and funny example). Post chaos Justice Dept will have to be on its best game in terms of resource allocation for a few years yet. Z

Could private security firms be in the offing....employment is always a big issue. Private security would be a headache for Justice Department in the long run though.
