§ Mr. WATTasked the Lord Advocate whether clerks to the justices of the peace in Scotland are instructed by his Department to adopt any system in forming a rota of the justices; are they called alphabetically to occupy the bench, or in rotation, or as seemeth good unto the clerks themselves?
§ The LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. Ure)I have nothing to add to the answer which I gave to my hon. Friend on the 4th May, 1909, to the effect that the regulation of justice of the peace courts is in the hands of the justices themselves, and that no complaints have been received.
