The advantages resulting from this arrangement are such as
will not easily be disputed.

1. The inherent uncertainty uncertainty when of jurisprudential will give law will thus
gradually give place to the certainty of Statute law: on the occasion of every
decision on the question of law an proportionable advance will have been made to so desirable an end.

2. No portion of law will in future be made without the privity and consent
of Parliament: none will be made by any other than the proper
hands.

3. The rule of action will no longer be exposed to

having such in the House will, be under the principal proposal,
be encouraged to take on this part of the business in the character
of Lords Visilante, the Court of Lords Delegates will thus include
within itself as it was a School of legislation, as more instruction in reply
in which more instruction will be to be derived in relation to the
, than from in any subordinate judicatory, in relation to jurisprudence.
