The Court of Aldermen is made up of the twenty five aldermen of the City of London, presided over by the Lord Mayor (who is one of the aldermen). The court was originally responsible for the entire administration of the City, but most of its responsibilities were subsumed by the Court of Common Council in the fourteenth century. The Court of Aldermen meets nine times a year in the Aldermen's Court Room at Guildhall.〔http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/about_us/voting/Corporation_organisations.htm〕 Some of the remaining duties of the Court include approving people for Freedom of the City and approving the formation of new livery companies,〔http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/Corporation/LGNL_Services/Council_and_democracy/Councillors_democracy_and_elections/appointment_process.htm#alderman〕 appointing the Recorder of London and acting as the verderers of Epping Forest. ==Term of office== Although it is customary for them to retire at age 70 there is no legal compulsion to do so. They must submit themselves for re-election every six years.〔(Report – Policy & Resources Committee )〕〔(London Metropolitan Archives, Information Leaflet Number 13, The Court of Common Council )〕 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「court of aldermen」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
