§ MR. WEIRI beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland whether, when effect is given to the Resolution of the House of Commons as to the appointment of Justices of the Peace, steps will be taken to remove from the Roll of Justices in the Highlands those who are absentees and nonresident, particularly in the combined Counties of Ross and Cromarty, where there are 33, as well as those whose occupations require their constant attendance in England, on the Continent of Europe, in India, and in other counties of Scotland?
§ SIR G. TREVELYANI have no reason to think that the Lord Chancellor will deviate from the practice of former Lord Chancellors in the direction of removing from the Roll non-resident Justices.
