HC Deb 23 February 1872 vol 209 c953
MR. LOPES

asked Mr. Attorney General, Whether he will be able to introduce his promised Bill for amending and consolidating the Law in respect to the summoning, attendance, and remuneration of Jurymen before Easter; and, if not before Easter, when?

THE ATTORNEY GENERAL

said, that, although the present state of the law relating to jurymen was not what could be desired, it was by no means easy to frame a remedy for the evils complained of. He would, however, bring the matter under the notice of the House as soon as possible, and in such a manner as he hoped would be satisfactory.
