HL Deb 20 December 1984 vol 458 c762WA
Lord Bruce-Gardyne

asked Her Majesty's Government:

When they will bring forward legislation to reform the law on non-disclosure and breach of warranty in relation to insurance contracts affecting private consumers.

Lord Lucas of Chilworth

We are embarking on discussions with the insurance industry to see whether changes to their Statements of Insurance Practice can be made to deal with problems in those areas. We shall review whether legislation is appropriate and feasible in the light of whatever changes may be agreed. I shall report the Government's conclusion to the House.
