§ 91. Mrs. Hartasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department if Her Majesty's Government will amend the terms of reference of the departmental Committee inquiring into the law and 43W practice in England and Wales relating to jury service, so to make it an interdepartmental Committee with an order of reference including Scotland within the scope of its inquiry.
§ Mr. BrookeNo. The Scottish law relating to jury service differs in many respects from that in England and Wales, and my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Scotland and I feel that it would be better not to complicate the Committee's work by extending their terms of reference to include Scotland.
