§ 23. Lieut.-Colonel Liptonasked the Attorney-General what steps are being taken to give effect to the recommendations of the Report of the Committee on the Limitation of Actions.
§ The Attorney-General (Sir Hartley Shawcross)Careful consideration has been given to the recommendations of this Committee but I am unable to say when it will prove possible to introduce legislation.
§ Lieut.-Colonel LiptonWill the right hon. and learned Gentleman use his best endeavours to rescue these useful, and I think non-controversial, proposals by this Committee from unmerited oblivion?
§ The Attorney-GeneralI would like to see the law relating to this matter tidied up, but the proposals of the Committee are not entirely non-controversial.
