HC Deb 27 November 1972 vol 847 c5W
32. Mr. Arthur Davidson

asked the Attorney-General whether he will now introduce legislation to amend the law of contempt.

The Attorney-General

As I indicated in answer to a Question by the hon. Member on 22nd May, 1972, the Government do not wish to anticipate the recommendations of Lord Justice Phillimore's Committee. The present expectation is that their report will be available early next year.—[Vol. 837, c. 992–4.]
