Proceeding contribution from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 October 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill.

Constitutional Reform and Governance Bill

Nobody can doubt that the Government have pursued a huge agenda on constitutional reform, but may I press my right hon. Friend on the way our judges have been appointed? Does he feel that we perhaps went a little too quickly as far as judicial appointments were concerned—hence the concerns that have been expressed about some of the constitutional changes? I am not talking about the grand vision of what the Government have done—which has been amazing, in my view—but about some of the detail, which really needs to be scrutinised very carefully.
