Madam, – I agree with the DPP James Hamilton’s statement regarding jury reforms, that “far too many categories of people are excluded from jury service” (Home News, May 25th).
Currently people over 70 are excluded. This group represents a major portion of society and can bring a wealth of knowledge and life experiences.This exclusion is yet another indication of negative ageist attitudes, which need to be redressed. – Yours, etc,
