Recapitulation

Maintenance of the authority of the supreme legislature, and of the judicial authority of the House of Lords as a branch of that legislature, - as against abolition or usurpation by the subordinate judicatories - prevention, absolute or relative, of usurpation of jurisdiction on the part of the local judicatories - maintenance of uniformity in the decisions of the subordinative judicatures, as between judicature and judicature and as between time and time - are these to be regarded as so many subordinate or intermediate ends of justice? To none of these ends does the proposed Chamber of Review aim at being subservient: to all of them it is directly adverse.
