HC Deb 12 March 1973 vol 852 c274W
Mr. Robert Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment whether he will seek powers to make Clauses 23(2) and 63(1) of the Institute of Civil Engineers' form of contract unlawful in view of the detrimental effect such clauses have on prior creditors.

Mr. Speed

I am not aware of any evidence which would justify such legislation.
