Proceeding contribution from David Nuttall (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 21 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Estates of Deceased Persons (Forfeiture Rule and Law of Succession) Bill.
Estates of Deceased Persons (Forfeiture Rule and Law of Succession) Bill
My hon. Friend makes an excellent point. One of the problems is that the affairs of a person who is murdered are left hanging in mid air. If they have not made a will, their affairs might be left to the vagaries of the intestacy laws. If they have made a will and have been murdered by their son, law might provide for the estate to pass to that son anyway.
