§ 110. Mr. Storeyasked the Minister of Health whether, in view of the fact that neither the court nor the petitioner's solicitor is under any obligation to inform 131W the respondent in an undefended divorce action that a decree nisi or a decree absolute has been pronounced, he will take steps to make it a function of the Registrar General to register divorce decrees in the same way as births, marriages and deaths.
§ Mr. BevanA register of all divorce decrees is already kept at the Principal Divorce Registry at Somerset House. I see no reason why the Registrar General should maintain a duplicate.
