HC Deb 17 January 1945 vol 407 c172W
Sir R. Glyn

asked the Attorney-General how many of the 23 recommendations of the Fifth Interim Report of the Law Revision Committee, Cmd. 5334, have been carried out; and what further alterations in the Statutes of Limitation have been made.

The Attorney-General

The Law Revision Committee's Report to which the hon. Member refers formed the basis of the Limitation Act, 1939, which embodied substantialy all of the Committee's recommendations. So far as I am aware, no further alteration to the Statutes of Limitation have been made; but I might refer my hon. Friend to the Bill which has just been introduced in another place, and which proposes certain temporary amendments in this branch of the law necessitated by war conditions.
