This proposal, supported by the Working Party, is aimed at encouraging the parties to
dispose of money claims where there is no defence by using a default judgment
process which requires no appearance before a judge and so tends to save time and
costs. It proposes to expand the range of cases that can be dealt with in this way and
to allow a defendant greater flexibility in the manner of consenting to judgment. The
Working Party also recommends retaining the Hong Kong courts' approach as to
when admissions may be withdrawn.
