The decision on Monday means that there will not be a full criminal trial to hear the claims against Janner, which span three decades.
Instead, he is expected to face a “trial of the facts”, where the jury is asked to decide – on the basis of evidence adduced by prosecution lawyers and by lawyers who put the case for the defence – whether or not the accused did the acts he or she was charged with. His trial of facts has already been earmarked to start on 11 April next year.

Do you really think propping him up in the dock, not knowing who he was or where and understanding little if anything said too him would serve any purpose?
I can understand the huge disappointment of those affected that he wasn't brought to book whilst he was still compus, but I can't see it happening now.

I think he knows very well what he is doing. Found this information online.
Westminster attendance records show Janner attended the House of Lords almost daily and claimed more than £100,000 in expenses in the four years after he was diagnosed with the disease.
He only stopped attending Parliament – and claiming up to £300 a day for doing so – when child abuse police raided his house on December 2013. Even in that month he attended the Lords 12 times.
Analysis of records shows Janner continued speaking fluently for years after his diagnosis and was also alert enough to claim expenses among the highest in the Lords.

Well it looks like a 'Trial of Facts' may be the only option now, though his team will appeal against it happening.

sqad: //Would you consider that proceeding with this case is in the PUBLIC interest? //
in the 1990s, Ernest Saunders "had no short-term memory, barely recognised his family and could hardly speak". was it in the public interest to keep him in prison? the authorities decided not and he was released. and then, whaddya know? miraculous recovery, first ever recorded.
so sqad, excuse my cynicism, but......
