HC Deb 24 October 1947 vol 443 c6W
Mr. Palmer

asked the Attorney-General if it is intended to introduce legislation to carry out the Rushcliffe Report on Legal Aid to Poor Persons.

The Attorney-General

The general proposals of the Rushcliffe Report have been accepted in principle, and it is intended to introduce legislation to give effect to them. I cannot say that this will be during the present Session, but it is hoped to introduce it during this Session if time permits.
