Scotland's Lord President Lord Hamilton & Eleanor Emberson (Chief Executive of the Scottish Court Service) give evidence to MSPs of the Scottish Parliament's Justice Committee on Scottish Government's Draft Budget 2012-13 and Spending Review 2011

During questioning on a wide variety of matters affecting the Scottish justice system as a result of budget reviews & less public funds available, Lord Hamilton says there should not be a pay freeze on judges in these tough financial times ...

However there is much more to Lord Hamilton's attendance at the Scottish Parliament than the judge's lack of a decent wage (they already get up to £200K a year plus expenses) an issue which wont gain much sympathy in the current financial climate, so watch the entire clip and learn something about our Scottish justice system and how it is being managed by the current Scottish Government and the unelected self-regulating Scottish legal establishment ...

The full report of the meeting can be downloaded at the Scottish Parliament's website as an acrobat pdf file here :
