§ Mr. Gordon Wilsonasked the Solicitor-General for Scotland if the experimental small claims procedure in operation in Dundee sheriff court will be continued after December.
§ The Solicitor-General for ScotlandOn 1 January 1979 a three-year experiment with a small claims procedure was introduced in Dundee sheriff court. As planned that experiment will finish at the end of December 1981 and accordingly the experimental procedure will not be available after that date. My noble and learned Friend the Lord Advocate will carefully consider the results of this experiment when they become available in 1982.
