I accept that there is a good case for including magistrates er trailing clouds of glory as it were from Tudor times when the Justice of the Peace was local government and then historically through their membership  standing joint committees, but I still find it hard to accept, and here with great regret I do differ both from the Noble Lord, Lord  and the Noble Viscount, Lord , I is the part of the central government er to make at least five appointments for each authority somewhere between two hundred or three hundred appointments direct?
