Statute Law Revision Bill 2007: Committee Stage
7:00 pm
Brendan Ryan (Labour)
With a Member of the House of Commons, it seems the further back a debate goes, the more he likes it.
I am intrigued by the unpublished private Acts referred to in the memorandum and covered by section 2(2)(b). These Acts sound like something from a novel written before the time of D.H. Lawrence. What is meant by "unpublished private Acts"? I do not want to be awkward. There are private Acts which refer to people being divorced and similar issues. However, it is as if there is a range of issues about which we do not know.
