He was elected for Edinburgh East at a by-election in November 1947 and sat for the constituency until 1954.[citation needed]He was Solicitor General for Scotland from March to October 1947, when he was appointed Lord Advocate. He was appointed a King's Counsel and a Privy Counsellor in 1947. One of his most significant achievements as a politician was the establishment of the legal aid scheme in Scotland. He was appointed to the bench, with the judicial title Lord Wheatley. In 1966 he was appointed chairman of the Royal Commission on Local Government in Scotland.The resulting "Wheatley Report", published in 1969, led to the eventual introduction a new system of Scottish local authorities. In 1970 he was created a life peer, as Baron Wheatley, of Shettleston in the County of the City of Glasgow. In 1972 he was appointed Lord Justice Clerk, a post he held until 1985.Following the Ibrox disaster in 1971, Wheatley was appointed by the government to conduct an inquiry into safety at sports grounds. His 1972 report became the basis for the Green Guide.Wheatley was a lifelong Roman Catholic. He was also known for hard sentencing of crimes involving sex. While Lord Justice-Clerk (an appeal judge), he exercised his right to sit as a trial judge in criminal cases, and handed out long sentences for such crimes.".
