HC Deb 08 July 1982 vol 27 c176W
Mr. Field

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how much time, after the completion of the relevant consultations, he estimates will be required to draft the changes to the juvenile court rules required by the Government's proposals for representation in care proceedings.

Mr. Mayhew

The process of amending the rules, once consultations on policy have been completed, will take at least three months.
