Abstract: "The terms of reference required the Committee to examine the eligibility of members of Parliament who do not hold Ministerial portfolios to serve on juries, including the existence and extent of any common law immunity that prevents members from serving as jurors, the appropriateness of any such immunity, and the appropriateness of the statutory exemption in the Jury Act 1977 that renders members ineligible for jury service."--Introduction.
