HC Deb 17 March 1980 vol 981 c8W
Mr. Wheeler

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what consideration he has given to the eleventh report (1972) of the Criminal Law Revision Committee; and if he will bring forward the draft Criminal Evidence Bill proposed therein.

Mr. Whitelaw

Before considering any alteration of the law of evidence in criminal proceedings I propose to await the report of the Royal Commission on criminal procedure.
