Debtor's Welcome to their Brother
The Cork Archive papers represent a goldmine of insolvency information. The Cork Archive includes the archives of Professor Muir Hunter QC (1913-2008), who was one of the leading bankruptcy barristers in the United Kingdom for a period of forty years or so. The Cork Archive includes, inter alia:
• Cork Report preliminary drafts,
• Submissions to the Cork Committee,
• Discussion documents and Position papers on various topics drafted by the Committee’s Secretary or Members for circulation and discussion amongst the Committee.
• Contemporary press cuttings.
As noted above the Cork Archive is unique. The papers do not exist in any other public setting. Some of the material in the Cork Archive has already been used to influence modern policy discussions (see: bonds article).
