Recommendation 31: The possibility of proceedings for contempt being
brought against a person who verifies a pleading by a statement of truth without
believing that the factual allegations contained in the pleading are true should be
maintained, but the rule should make it clear that such proceedings (to be
brought, with the leave of the court, either by the Secretary for Justice or by an
aggrieved party) are subject to the general law of contempt and to be
contemplated only in cases where sanctions for contempt may be proportionate
and appropriate.
