§ MR. HELDER (Whitehaven)I beg to ask the Attorney General whether Millom (Cumberland) is about to be made a separate county court district; and whether theme is a sufficient number of plaints from Millom to justify that course, as the effect of the alteration, if made, would probably be to render both Whitehaven and Millom unable to pay the working expenses of their respective courts?
THE ATTORNEY GENERAL (Sir R.WEBSTER,) Isle of WightVery strong local representations have been made in favour of a separate court at Millom. The number of plaints is not expected to be large, though larger than in many courts. It is neither desirable nor possible to lay down any hard and fast rule as to courts paying their way.
