HC Deb 05 August 1943 vol 391 c2449
36. Mr. Thorne

asked the Home Secretary how many stipendiary magistrates sit for the county boroughs with a population of over 250,000?

Mr. H. Morrison

There are eight county boroughs with a population of over 250,000 persons each of which has one stipendiary magistrate.

Mr. Thorne

Does any stipendiary sit for more than one county borough?

Mr. Morrison

It looks, as far as I can recall, as though there is no county borough in which more than one stipendiary magistrate functions. I am saying that from recollection. This answer does tend to confirm that.
