HC Deb 08 May 1925 vol 183 cc1324-5W
Captain BRISCOE

asked the Attorney-General whether he is aware of the inconvenience caused to the inhabitants of Swavesey, Cambridgeshire, by the fact that there is no justice of the peace residing there; and whether he will call the attention of the Lord Chancellor to the subject?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

The Lord Chancellor's attention has been drawn to this matter by his Advisory Committee. He is informed that, owing to the death of a magistrate who resided in Swavesey, there is need for the appointment of a magistrate who resides in the district, and he has appointed a magistrate who resides at Over. The Lord Chancellor understands that Over and Swavesey are adjoining villages, and that the newly-appointed magistrate will be available for the inhabitants of both places
