HC Deb 27 July 1983 vol 46 c476W
Mr. Martin

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will seek to amend the law so that costs in excess of £250,000 must be disclosed by the Law Society of Scotland to him.

Mr. Ancram

I do not consider such an amendment to be necessary. Legislation does not prevent the disclosure to my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State of the cost of such cases.
