Description
Serving Judge Lord McCluskey gives his first Reith lecture from his series entitled 'Law, Justice and Democracy'.
In his lecture entitled 'The Chill and Distant Heights', Lord McCluskey discusses whether it is right for judges to have sole responsibility for sentencing criminals. He argues that if judges were relieved of the responsibility for so-called sentencing policy, it could help them to play the role of administering a system of law.
