GENERAL, In Committee of Supply in the House of Commons on Tuesday last, upon the vote for £350,789 for county courts, Mr. H. Fowler declared there was no department which demanded more searching inquiry and more vigorous reform than county courts. While judges of the superior courts sat 200 days in the year, out of the 59 county court judges there were 25 receiving a salary of £1,500 a year who did not sit 150 days in the year. One happy man only sat 76 days. This was a question which any Government, whether Liberal or Conservative, ought to take in hand. Mr. Conybeare quoted a later return shewing that 36 county court judges sat less than 150 days, whereas in Liverpool one county court judge sat 335 days. He objected to the practice of the judges employing substitutes, and he urged that the county court judges should be available for promotion to puisne judgeships. The Attorney-General said the question should be most carefully considered, not merely for consolidation, but in the direction indicated by the right hon. gentleman. The courts could not be consolidated in the least populous districts because of the distance parties would have to travel, which would give rise to an outcry in the opposite direction. At the same time there was ground for thinking there was not sufficient economy of labour, while on the other hand in populous places a large amount of work was got out of the judges. The Government wished to go as far as the right hon. gentleman in improving the county court system, in economising the time of the judges and the expenditure of money.
