Asked about the situation facing the Crown Prosecution Service, Mr Cox says it would be a "travesty" to describe it as a "failing organisation", as some "wholly exaggerated accounts" suggest.
However, he adds that neither CPS, nor the Serious Fraud Office, can cope with any further budget cuts and that he is meeting the Chancellor monthly discuss funding.
