About the Speaker

Baroness Elizabeth Butler-Sloss was called to the bar from the Inner Temple in 1955. She became the first woman judge appointed to the Court of Appeal in 1988, having chaired the Cleveland child abuse inquiry in the previous year. In 1999 Butler-Sloss became President of the Family Division of the High Court of Justice. She was the first woman to hold this position and she remained the highest-ranking woman judge in the United Kingdom until Brenda Hale became the first female Lord of Appeal in Ordinary in January 2004.

She was raised to the rank of Dame Grand Cross of the Order of the British Empire in the New Year’s Honours List published on December 31, 2004.

She is Chairman of the Security Commission. On 3 May 2006 it was announced by the House of Lords Appointments Commission that she would be one of seven new life peers – so-called ‘people’s peers’. She was gazetted as Baroness Butler-Sloss, of Marsh Green in the County of Devon on 13 June 2006.
