asked the Minister for Justice if he is aware that great inconvenience is caused in certain country districts through the want of Commissioners qualified to administer oaths, etc., for the High Court, and whether he will, if satisfied of the necessity, appoint a sufficient number.
CEISTEANNA—QUESTIONS. ORAL ANSWERS. - COMMISSIONERS FOR OATHS.
Under the Courts of Justice Act, 1924, Section 19, sub-section 3, Commissioners for Oaths for the High Court are appointed by the Chief Justice, not by the Minister for Justice. I have, therefore, no responsibility in the matter, but I am drawing the attention of the Chief Justice to the Deputy's question.
