HC Deb 01 March 1993 vol 220 c10W
Mr. Waterson

To ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department if he has now had the opportunity to consider the Kennedy report on the number of judges required for the commercial court; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. John M. Taylor

The report was received by the Lord Chancellor on 10 February 1993 and he and the Lord Chief Justice are now considering the advice it contains. The advice is concerned with the work, deployment and numbers of High Court judges in all the jurisdictions in which they sit and does not relate solely to the commercial court.
