§ Mr. BoatengTo ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department whether the Lord Chancellor has referred to the Supreme Court rules committee the question of procedures for the handling of multiple claims.
Mr. John M. TaylorThe Lord Chancellor has not referred to the Supreme Court rules committee the question of procedures for the handling of multiple claims. However, the Supreme Court procedure committee has considered this issue and in May 1991 published a "Guide for Use in Group Actions". Copies have been placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
