HC Deb 02 February 1976 vol 904 c444W
Mr. Gordon Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Defence what is the number of occasions when Scots and English law were respectively selected in defence contracts for the purposes of interpretation in each year from 1970 to 1975.

Mr. William Rodgers

This information cannot be obtained without disproportionate effort.

Mr. Gordon Wilson

asked the Secretary of State for Defence if he will define the criteria upon which legal jurisdictions in defence contracts are selected.

Mr. William Rodgers

Scottish contractors are given the option of having Scots law; otherwise English law is selected.
