HC Deb 22 October 1986 vol 102 c885W
Mr. Wareing

asked the Attorney-General what plans he has to reform the illegitimacy laws; and if he will make a statement.

The Attorney-General

The Government have accepted the recommendations of the Law Commission in its first report on illegitimacy (Law Com. No. 118), as subsequently modified in its second report (Law Corn. No. 157). The Government plan to introduce legislation to give effect to the Law Commission's recommendations at the earliest possible opportunity.
