THE
LAW
REVISION COMMITTEE’S
SIXTH INTERIM
REPORT
BY
THE EDITORIAL COMMITTEE
OF
THE MODERN LAW REVIEW
HE
Sixth Interim Report of the Law Revision Committee’
deals with the Statute of Frauds and related statutes and
the doctrine of consideration, and contains undoubtedly
the most important, the most vigorously radical reforms which
have been recommended
so
far. The Committee apparently does
not agree
with
Voltaire that even the worst abuses can become
respectable with age, and consequently proposes the eradication
of some of the most venerable flaws in the law of contract.
It
is
the purpose
of
this article to examine briefly some of the
implications and effects of the proposed reforms.
