Consultation description

Mandatory retirement for judges of the High Court and above was first introduced by the Judicial Pensions Act 1959, which set a retirement age of 75. Prior to this, judges could continue in office for as long as they wished. Other judicial office holders were subject to a variety of different retirement provisions.
