New procedure; new judges

Friday 7 September 2007 at 5:15 pm | In News | Post Comment

The Judicial Appointments Commission’s (JAC) new selection procedure has resulted in the appointment of two High Court judges.

Judge Norris QC, will join the Chancery Division; Judge Maddison will join the Queen’s Bench Division.

The judges were appointed by The Queen, after the Lord Chancellor had accepted the recommendations of the JAC. The chairman of the JAC is Baroness Prashar.

The JAC’s new selection process was born through the new statutory framework set out in the Constitutional Reform Act 2005.
