HC Deb 10 March 1978 vol 945 c792W
Mr. Wrigglesworth

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department when the working party on judicial training was established; when it is expected to report; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Merlyn Rees

The Working Party on Judicial Training and Information, chaired by Lord Justice Bridge, was set up jointly by my predecessor, my noble and learned Friend the Lord Chancellor and the noble and learned Lord, the Lord Chief Justice in July 1975. We expect to receive its report within the next few weeks; and it will be published. It is probable that we shall need to consult widely before taking decisions on it.
