HC Deb 06 August 1941 vol 373 c1962W
Sir H. Williams

asked the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster the "names of the members of the committee that advices him on the appointment of, justices of the peace?

The Attorney-General

I have been asked to reply. There is no single committee that advises the Chancellor of the Duchy on the appointment of justices of the peace. For the past twenty years or more there have been separate committees for the county bench and for each of the thirty cities and boroughs within the County Palatine having its own Commission of the Peace. If the hon. Member will specify the particular committee or committees the personnel of which he desires to know, the information shall be furnished to him.
