§ MR. BROADHURSTasked Mr. Attorney General, Whether it is the intention of the Government to bring in a Bill during the present Session of Parliament to remedy the defects and inconvenience connected with the present Jury system?
§ THE ATTORNEY GENERAL (Sir HENRY JAMES)I can assure the hon. Member that the Government are fully alive to the many inconveniences resulting from the present state of the jury law; but the matter is a very complicated one. There would be great difficulty in carrying a Bill on the subject; and I am afraid I can hold out no hope of such a Bill being introduced this Session.
