HC Deb 04 May 1925 vol 183 c607W
Colonel WEDGWOOD

asked the Attorney-General whether, as the last volume of the second edition of the Revised Statutes, published in 1909, brings that edition only to the close of the year 1900, he will consider the advisability of introducing a new Statute Law Revision Bill with a view to the preparation of further volumes of this edition covering the first quarter of the present century?

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

The question of preparing a new Statute Law Revision Bill, with a view to the compilation of further volumes of the revised Statutes covering the first quarter of the present century, has for some time been under the consideration of the Statute Law Committee, and such a Bill covering the first 20 years of the present century is in course of preparation.
