The establishment of the Committee on Conveyancing was announced by the Solicitor General in a Written Answer in the House of Commons on 17 February 1984 which gave the following terms of reference:
Part 1. To consider what tests or other evidence of competence are needed for non-solicitor conveyancers in order to provide the public with a satisfactory assurance of adequate skill; how any such tests might be administered; and what other requirements should be placed on non-solicitor conveyancers in order to provide the public with a satisfactory assurance of adequate skill; how any such tests might be administered; and what other requirements should be placed on non-solicitor conveyancers to ensure adequate consumer protection.
Part 2. To consider the scope for simplifying conveyancing practice and procedure, and any other matters concerning the simplification of house purchase which may be referred to the committee. These terms of reference related only to England and Wales.
The first report of the committee was published and presented to the Lord Chancellor in September 1984. The second report of the committee was published and presented to the Lord Chancellor in January 1985.
