HC Deb 25 June 1917 vol 95 c39
40. Mr. WATT

asked the Lord Advocate whether it is the practice that the positions of macers in the Court of Session become vacant on the death or retirement of the judges upon whose Court they attend; and whether, therefore, the present vacancy among the judges will lead to a vacancy also among the macers?

Mr. MUNRO

The answer to both parts of the question is in the negative.
