§ 50. Mr. FREEMANasked the Home Secretary whether he will consider the desirability of changing the name police court into court of inquiry or similar term?
§ Mr. SHORTMy right hon. Friend would of course be ready to consider better names if such could be found; but he is not aware of any general desire for a change and the public might not take to new names for these familiar institutions.
§ Mr. FREEMANAre not these courts part and parcel of the system of the administration of justice in this country, with no monopoly or control by the police? Therefore, is not this term an undesirable interference——
§ Mr. SPEAKERThat is a matter of argument.
