Lords ChamberI am afraid I do not know. It predates me, sorry.
Is it the Government’s view that, by retaining the ban—as it is at the moment—for PCCs, there would be a case for extending it so that, if it should emerge that the noble Lord, Lord Pannick, committed an imprisonable offence before the age of 21, he should be barred from becoming a Supreme Court judge? Does one thing not follow the other?
The noble Lord will forgive me for not venturing an opinion on that.
