HC Deb 09 March 1916 vol 80 c1724
38. Mr. CURRIE

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether his attention has been drawn to the written opinion of the senior registrar of the Principal Probate Registry that the habitual requirement of the Probate authorities in England that the executors of a deceased Scottish owner of a United Kingdom patent should reseal the Scottish confirmation in England is unnecessary; and whether he will now take steps to have the practice discontinued?

Mr. RUNCIMAN

I am taking steps to consult the Law Officers on the point raised in the hon. Gentleman's question.
