HL Deb 03 March 1998 vol 586 c157WA
Baroness Miller of Hendon

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they have any plans to implement the recommendation of the Law Commission made in its report dated 4 November 1992 to modify the strict time limits set out in Section 29 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 in order to save unnecessary expenditure of time of both lawyers and the courts, as well as costs. [HL765]

Baroness Hayman

The Government are looking closely at the recommendations in this report, many of which are obviously sensible. We will announce our conclusions in due course. Implementation would require primary legislation.
