These appointments were effective from 01 November 2024.

Lady Wise, President of Scottish Tribunals, said: “The work of the devolved Tribunals affects a large number of people in Scotland, with caseloads increasing across the board in recent years. I am delighted that Sheriffs Craig, Komorowski, Martin-Brown, and Reid have become members of the Upper Tribunal for Scotland. The new judicial members bring extensive legal knowledge and experience of appellate functions, which will serve them well in this integral part of the judicial system."
