HC Deb 26 June 1972 vol 839 c264W
Mr. Ron Lewis

asked the Attorney-General if he will give details of the occasions when the Official Solicitor intervened in cases of proceedings, known or unknown to the person or persons concerned; and if he will make a statement.

The Attorney-General

I would refer the hon. Member to my answer to the Question by the hon. Member for Merthyr Tydvil (Mr. Rowlands) on 23rd June.—[Vol. 839, c.183–4.]

Mr. Ron Lewis

asked the Attorney-General if the Official Solicitor makes an annual report on his work; and when this was last published.

The Attorney-General

No. But the Official Solicitor makes to the Lord Chancellor a quarterly return of contempt cases reviewed by him and the total number of legal matters of all kinds dealt with by the Official Solicitor are recorded in the annual Civil Judicial Statistics.
