HC Deb 16 June 1965 vol 714 cc84-5W
24. Mr. Howe

asked the Attorney-General whether Her Majesty's Government will take steps to reduce the length and complexity of the Rules of the Supreme Court so as to make them as simple and sufficient for the definition and resolution of contentious issues as those contained in the Schedule to the Industrial Tribunals (England and Wales) Regulations, 1965.

The Attorney-General

The Rules of the Supreme Court have just been entirely rewritten and I hope it will be found that their form is now more satisfactory, although they are still necessarily long and complex. It would be quite impossible for rules dealing with the wide variety of matters which are liable to come before the Supreme Court to be as simple as those governing industrial tribunals
