Alan Shatter
Ceist:639 Mr. Shatter asked the Minister for Justice the reason for the delay in appointing a replacement Taxing Master to the High Court; when it is intended to make such an appointment; and if her attention has been drawn to the fact that successful litigants in civil and family proceedings have been seriously prejudiced by the growing backlog of cases to be determined by the Taxing Master due to the delay in making the necessary appointment.
