HC Deb 23 December 1937 vol 330 c2197W
Sir A. Wilson

asked the Home Secretary whether and, if so, when the Government will institute a public inquiry into certain aspects of the work of Courts of Summary Jurisdiction, with a view to considering what amendments are desirable for facilitating consolidation of the existing law upon lines which will promote simplicity and uniformity?

Sir S. Hoare

There have been two inquiries in recent years into certain aspects of the work of Courts of Summary Jurisdiction and the question of further inquiry about other aspects of their work is now under consideration.
