§ 79. Mr. SORENSENasked the Attorney-General whether, as the office of King's Proctor is deemed unnecessary in Scotland, he will consider the desirability of abolishing the office in England?
§ The SOLICITOR-GENERAL (Sir James Melville)In view of the complete divergence between the legal systems of England and Scotland the reason given by the hon. Member is not a ground for abolishing the office in question.
§ Mr. MACQUISTENIs it not the case that a King's Proctor is not needed in Scotland because of the superior veracity of the Scottish people?
§ The SOLICITOR-GENERALI have no information at all on that matter.
