Lord Pentland will succeed the Right Honourable Lord Carloway as head of the Scottish Judiciary.

During the ceremony, the Royal Warrant appointing Lord Pentland will be read to the court before his lordship takes the Oath of Allegiance and the Judicial Oath.

Lord Pentland will then take his place on the bench and address the court before it adjourns.
