Abstract
Examines the procedure allowing judges to give evidence to Parliamentary select committees about draft legislation, and suggests why its main role is educational. Reviews the occasions on which such evidence was given between 1979 and 2015, whether the trend has increased, the subject areas concerned, the status of judge involved, the type of issues raised and whether the practice poses a threat to judicial independence.
