HC Deb 18 February 1924 vol 169 c1298
38 and 40. Mr. FOOT

asked the Prime Minister (1) if it is the intention of the Government to introduce the Criminal Justice Bill and Administration of Justice Bill during the present Session;

(2) whether the Government intend to take steps during the present Session to consolidate the Law relating to real property?

The PRIME MINISTER

Yes, Sir.

Mr. FOOT

In reference to Question number 40, is the right hon. Gentleman aware that the Law of Property Act, passed two years ago, comes into operation on the 1st January next, and if the law be not consolidated in the meantime very serious inconvenience will result?

The PRIME MINISTER

That is one of the reasons which I had in mind.
