HC Deb 13 March 1930 vol 236 c1527W
Mr. CROOM-JOHNSON

asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that borough, county and district councillors who freely give their time for the public benefit are not exempted from jury service under the Juries Acts, 1825 to 1922; and whether he will consider the question of procuring an amendment of the law so as to exempt them from jury service so long as they serve as such councillors?

Mr. CLYNES

I would refer the hon. Member to my answer to a similar question last Thursday.
