520 $aThis new book contends that the concept of the independence of the judiciary has not been seriously analysed in England, and examines it through the perceptions of the Lord Chancellor's Office. The Lord Chancellor's Office was established in 1880 as the executive arm of the Lord Chancellor. He is thus the presiding judge of England, a member of the Cabinet, Speaker of the House of Lords and also head of an executive department - his own office.
520 8 $aWorking from the records of the Lord Chancellor's Office, the author takes the reader through a number of related areas: the appointment of judges and the attempt to remove them; the disciplining of judges; their role in the Courts; their executive responsibilities, particularly towards the commissions and committees they chair, relations with parliament and the Civil Service; the role of the English judges in the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. This important work also examines the battles within and around the judiciary over the last thirty years, and places them in the broader context of the separation of powers, the legal system, and the politics of the period.
