This Kat just noticed that the valedictory ceremony for Lord Kitchin of the UK Supreme Court will be held on Tuesday 25 July 2023, following the announcement that his Lordship would retire at the end of the legal year in September 2023.
The ceremony will take place in Courtroom One and be live streamed on the UK Supreme Court website.
The UK Supreme Court says that ‘The ceremony will include remarks by the President of The Supreme Court, The Right Hon Lord Reed of Allermuir, Daniel Alexander KC, and Iain Purvis KC. Lord Kitchin will also say a few words himself.’
Welcome speeches made when a practitioner goes to the Bench and valedictory remarks on the retirement of a judge in the UK are always great fun which this Kat reads whenever one becomes available.
The IPKat looks forward to the ceremony and wishes Lord Kitchin a very happy retirement!
