The Judges' Council is a body in England and Wales that,representing the judiciary,advises the Lord Chief Justice on judicial matters. It has its historical roots in the original Council of the Judges of the Supreme Court,created by the Judicature Act 1873 to oversee the new Supreme Court of Judicature. This body initially met regularly,reforming the procedure used by the circuit courts,and the new High Court of Justice but met less regularly as time went on,meeting only twice between 1900 and 1907,with a gap of ten years between meetings in 1940 and 1950 respectively. After relative inactivity,it was eventually wound up through the Supreme Court Act 1981,which contained no provisions for its continued existence,something Denis Dobson attributes to newer bodies which performed the duties the Council had originally been created to do.
