Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Bill [HL]
My Lords, it does not suggest a shortage in numbers; the question is whether one gets the right quality. I think that one does in relation to district judges, but I do not think that a reason for artificially restricting the pool. If there are people with the right qualification, I see no reason why they should not be considered. The wider the pool—or deeper, depending on how you look at it—the higher the merit.
