Talk:Law officers of the Crown

How about Some More History? + A Puzzle
It seems odd that this article includes historical details about some obscure and now defunct officers, but tells us nothing about the history of the most important office covered, that of Attorney General. When was it first created? When and how did it acquire its present status and powers, or lose whatever powers it used to have? Which notable individuals (if any!) have held the office? Also, is it correct to say that the Attorney General is a member of the Government, as opposed to having the right to attend Cabinet meetings? In the Republic of Ireland, for example, the Attorney General has the latter but is not the former, and I wonder if that might technically be true in the UK as well. I could deal with these points myself, but I don't want to be accused of doing original research and anyway, this is stuff that an expert in the subject should provide (rather than a mere copyeditor). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.225.21.78 (talk) 21:36, 16 December 2009 (UTC)
