Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 February 2025
Debate
Armed Forces (Court Martial) (Amendment No. 2) Rules 2024Contribution
This is a small change to the constitution of the court martial, but it is important and sensible. It will ensure that, where the defendant in the court martial is a very senior officer, it will always be possible to select a president of the board with the appropriate seniority for the important duties and functions of that role. With that explanation, I beg to move.
