§ The Attorney-GeneralThe Denning Committee on Procedure in Matrimonial Causes recommended, affirming the views of the Royal Commission of 1912, that undefended divorce cases should continue to be determined by the Superior Courts of the country, and their recommendations in this regard have been adopted by the Government. The county court judges are accordingly exercising jurisdiction in Matrimonial Causes as Special Commissioners of the High Court, and the usual rule reserving the right of audience to members of the Bar applies.
