§ 54. Mr. Christopher Priceasked the Attorney-General when he last met the Director of Public Prosecutions.
§ The Solicitor-General (Mr. Peter Archer)Recently.
§ Mr. PriceHas my right hon. and learned Friend the Attorney-General yet decided whether he will give evidence personally to the Royal Commission on Criminal Procedure? Some weeks ago he had not made up his mind. If he has decided so to do, will he advocate publicly an independent prosecuting system in England and Wales?
§ The Solicitor-GeneralMy right hon. and learned Friend is still considering whether he can helpfully give evidence. If he does, his proposals will be formulated when the evidence is being prepared.
