Dear Colleagues:

Here is the post that Professor Cooke was interested in talking about:

Dear All,

Neil's expression of pleasure has moved me to make my first (and probably my last) contribution to this list.

In my opinion, the way the Law Commission has conducted this project provides the most vivid illustration yet of its regrettable and inappropriate tendency to run the law reform process as if it were an Oxford seminar.

Cheers,

Peter Cane

 Dear Colleagues:

 

I post on behalf of Elizabeth Cooke:

Dear all,

 I was rather hoping that people would pick this one up and run with it; I would find it really helpful to know what is meant here, whether people agree, and how list members feel that the Law Commission – or perhaps law reform bodies generally – should go about the process. What should the process be?

 This project was unusual, and many of you are familiar with a number of Law Commission projects, so perhaps we could discuss with reference to a range of projects rather than just to this one.

 Yours cheerfully

Lizzie Cooke

 Law Commissioner for England and Wales
