Its 14th programme of law reform, announced last week, will also cover ownerless land—should it automatically pass to the Crown, and who is responsible for any environmental hazards?—as well as agricultural tenancies, deeds and desecration of a corpse. The role of AI will be debated in a project on public sector automated decision-making, while another project will discuss the potential for giving residents greater control over the management of their housing estates.
As well as these ten projects, the Law Commission will continue work on its existing 17 projects.
Law Commission chair Sir Peter Fraser said: ‘In all our projects, we endeavour to provide high-quality recommendations for law reform for Parliament to consider so that the law remains modern and relevant to our changing society.’
