Proceeding contribution from Lord McNally (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 21 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Justice: Reform of Punishment, Rehabilitation, Sentencing and Legal Aid.


Justice: Reform of Punishment, Rehabilitation, Sentencing and Legal Aid

I know that my right honourable friend the Lord Chancellor has very regular meetings with the Lord Chief Justice and other senior members of the judiciary. However, those meetings are private and he certainly has not made me aware of whether he has discussed any aspect of these proposals with the Lord Chief Justice or the judiciary. If he has, I shall respond in writing to my noble and learned friend. I am not aware of a formal consultation but, if one has taken place, I shall make him aware of it.
