HC Deb 15 March 1932 vol 263 c181
48. Captain P. MACDONALD

asked the Prime Minister whether he will consider the desirability of setting up a commission for the purpose of codifying the whole range of English case law?

The PRIME MINISTER

I have consulted my Noble Friend the Lord Chancellor, and I am satisfied that to set up a commission to codify the whole range of English case law would not produce any useful result.

Captain MACDONALD

Is the right hon. Gentleman aware that grave dissatisfaction has been expressed on this point by certain learned Judges?
