Vote of Thanks to Julian Henry Malins QC:

 

Resolved unanimously – That in taking their leave of Julian Henry Malins QC upon his retirement as Alderman for the Ward of  Farringdon Without (South Side), this Court desires to place on record its most sincere appreciation of the service that he has given to the City Corporation and, in particular, to this Court.

 

Julian was elected as an Alderman for the Ward of Farringdon Without (South Side) in May 2013, having served as a Common Councilman for the Ward since 1981.  Educated at Brasenose College, Oxford and the College of Law, Julian was subsequently called to the Bar of England and Wales in 1972 by the Middle Temple and thereafter to other Bars including the Cayman Islands and British Virgin Islands. Working as an English Commercial Barrister, Julian was appointed a Queens' Counsel in 1991.

 

Aside from his legal expertise, Julian was a notorious sports fan with a particular passion for boxing and rugby.  He is also well known for his literary interests, as reflected by the many articles he has had published in legal journals as well as his first novel, The Serpent's Head, which was published in 2012.

 

In addition to his service on a number of City of London Corporation Committees; including the Standards Committee, Culture, Heritage and Libraries Committee and the Board of Governors of the Museum of London, Julian has remained closely involved in Ward activities throughout his civic career.  He has also been an active and enthusiastic member of the Livery.

 

On taking their leave, his colleagues would like to express to Julian their thanks and good wishes for the future.
