The Senior Presiding Judge for England and Wales is a member of the Court of Appeal appointed by the Lord Chief Justice to supervise the Presiding Judges for the various judicial circuits of England and Wales. At least two Presiding Judges are appointed by the Lord Chief Justice for each of six circuits to supervise the work of the local judiciary (circuit judges, district judges, recorders, and magistrates). The Senior Presiding Judge is responsible for deployment and personnel issues for all circuits and acts as a "general point of liaison" for the courts, judiciary and Government. The post dates to the appointment in 1983 of Sir Tasker Watkins, who remains the longest-serving holder of the office. The arrangement was put on a statutory footing with the enactment of the Courts and Legal Services Act 1990.〔House of Lords Debates (20 February 1990 c. 237. )〕〔House of Lords Debates (1 March 1990 c. 876. )〕 ==List of Senior Presiding Judges== *1983: Sir Tasker Watkins VC GBE〔 *1991: Sir Anthony McCowan *1995: Sir Robin Auld〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Rt Hon Sir Robin Auld )〕 *1998: Sir Igor Judge *2003: Sir John Thomas *1 January 2007: Sir Brian Leveson *1 January 2010: Sir John Goldring *1 January 2013: Sir Peter Gross 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Senior Presiding Judge for England and Wales」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
