HC Deb 16 June 2003 vol 407 c62W
Dr. Julian Lewis

To ask the Parliamentary Secretary, Lord Chancellor's Department what assessment the Department has made of the effect on the workload of the Probate Office of wills being executed without professional advice. [119302]

Mr. Lammy

The Department does not keep records of the effect that proving home made wills has on the Probate Registries' workload.

It is the view of the Probate Registries that they get a similar amount of problems with professionally drawn wills as from home made wills.
