§ Mr. R. C. Morrisonasked the Attorney-General whether it is proposed to take special measures to enable the Poor Persons department to deal with applications for divorce under the Matrimonial Causes Act without undue delay?
§ The Attorney-GeneralThe administration of the rules relating to legal proceedings by and against Poor Persons is in the hands of the Law Society. I understand that they are taking steps to deal with all applications under the Matrimonial Causes Act, 1937, and do not anticipate that undue delay will occur in doing so, though it is, of course, at this stage impossible to foresee the amount by which the operations of that Act will increase the burden laid upon them.
