Old but not forgotten: spring cleaning the statute book – Halsbury’s Law Exchange

Posted April 5th, 2012 in bills, legislation, news, repeals by sally

A number of future answers are about to be altered at the behest of the Law Commission, which has compiled a long list of statutory deadwood to be felled this summer by an axe in the form of the Statute Law (Repeals) Bill.”
