More ALS/Capita Failings on Twitter

At 6 July only 13% NRPSI terps on #ALSCAPITA books. Teething problems? Let's see how it settles? It hasn't & won't - #MoJFWA deeply flawed.
Some NRPSI #interpreters on #ALS books only on to get inside info - not taking jobs... who are the dummies acting as terps in court? #silent
Kasia Beresford @Kasiabesfud @talkrussian_ Experience shows data from #ALSCAPITA can't be trusted, but #ALS certainly won't have understated the figure. 13%= #MOJFWAFAIL
Katya Ford @KatyaFord @Geoffrey_M_B Numerous removal requests ignored. Interpreters report their names temporarily taken off the #ALS register then put back on!

#ALSCapita in court again today "to show cause". IOW why are they such crap at supplying linguists? (Still no terps in stock!)

This whole interpreter debacle is starting to make me angry. Just saw one who translated nothing but the charges and opening.
This chap also had to be directed by the judge to translate the prosecution opening. Was obviously struggling to find the words he needed.
Whoever came up with this bright idea needs to get arrested overseas and put in a court that refuses to translate proceedings for them.
Speaking independently, the Ministry of Justice are brazenly pissing over defendants' Article six rights for the sake of a few million quid.

Interpreters nowadays are like buses. Sometimes they never turn up and then 2 turn up for the same case

Two calls from a London mc looking for an interpreter. #ALSCapita still failing, the useless #MOJFWA just incurring expenses. Pathetic.

@nrpsinterpreter @rpsi_lounge I have a strange feeling that the Court of Appeal is going to lose its' temper over interpreter problems
