This would replace the House of Lords as the final court of appeal in civil and criminal matters in England and Wales and Northern Ireland; and, in civil matters, in Scotland. One of the issues in the Consultation is that of representation on the Bench. The writer argues that a continuation of the status quo, whereby Scottish judges are usually in a minority, is not compatible with the Human Rights Act 1998.
