    Hi,

    so basically I'm just wanting to know what people put for their answers (if you chose to do the delegated legislation question)

    Hi,

    First question on law reform i stated that

    its composed of 5 members, from either the judiciary, legal proffession or legal acedemics, created by Parliament to reform the law. Under the Law commissions Act 1965 the functions are to ;simply, repeal, group, remove inconcistancy ect.

    Then i stated about thier other function to advice other law reform bodies (as referred to the source)

    Then i wrote about the working paper, then statue bill to be passed by Parliament

    Then i wrote a bit about repeal, codification and concilidation, and gave an example of codification...

    This was my first part 2(a i)

    I basically stated the same thing.
    However, I put that the Law Commission was made up of a chairman, who is usually a High Court Judge and 4 other commisioners, there are also support staff to assist with the research and 4 Parliamentary Draftsmen who help with the drafting of the proposed bills.

    I spoke about codification and consolidation and the fact they 'tidy' up the law and referred to the same thing in the source.

    What did you do for your part B?
