HC Deb 16 December 1912 vol 45 c1090
45. Lord NINIAN CRICHTON-STUART

asked the Prime Minister whether it is proposed to introduce, as a Government measure, a measure for the payment of common jurymen?

The PRIME MINISTER

The question of the constitution of juries is now being inquired into by a Departmental Committee of which Lord Mersey is the chairman. Until their Report is received I cannot say what steps it may be desirable for the Government to take.
