§ MR. HOWARDI beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether the jurisdiction at Quarter Sessions of the existing Middlesex Magistrates is reserved to them by "The Local Government Act, 1888," as fully as if resident in that county, though they may be residing actually in the county of London?
§ MR. MATTHEWSI am advised that Middlesex Justices are not disqualified from acting as Justices in that county merely by the fact that they reside not in Middlesex, but in the county of London. If any reasonable legal doubt exists on the point, the matter can be tested in the Courts of Law.
