Consultants Paper (1978) - Studies in Comparative Civil and Criminal Procedure: Volume 2 - Innovations in Civil and Criminal Procedure
Preface
During 1975 the Law Foundation of New South Wales made available to this Commission a grant so that research might be undertaken overseas in comparative court procedure. The Commission advertised the availability of four research scholarships which were awarded to Mr. J. R. T. Wood of the New South Wales Bar and to Messrs. C. Bilinsky, J. Bishop and N. R. Carson, Solicitors of New South Wales.
Reports, based on that research, were made to the Commission and are being published in several volumes of which this, containing the work of Mr. Bishop, is the second. The reports represent the personal views of the researchers.
Publication of the reports at this stage is intended to elicit comment, or suggestions for reform of procedure in this State, having regard to developments overseas. Written comments or suggestions should please be made to Mr. B. Buchanan, Secretary of the Commission, Box 6, G.P.O., Sydney 2001.
The Commission renews its thanks to the Law Foundation for having made the research possible and it gratefully acknowledges the contribution to the project of the then Chairman of the Commission, the Honourable Mr. Justice C. L. D. Meares, at whose initiative it was first organised.
