HC Deb 27 October 1982 vol 29 c397W
Mr. Timothy Smith

asked the Attorney-General whether Her Majesty's Government will implement the recommendation of the Royal Commission on legal services (Cmnd. 7648) at paragraph 23.30 and set up an inquiry to review the issue of limited liability for claims of negligence against solicitors and members of other professions.

The Solicitor-General:

The limitation of professional liability is being reviewed by a sub-committee of the United Kingdom Inter Professional Group. It is understood that this committee is now considering the comments of the governing bodies of the professions on its preliminary reports. It is not proposed at present to set up a separate Government inquiry into the same topic.
