    13. We are sensible that there may be defects and flaws in the Bill which we appena to this Report.
The subject is complicated and technical and the time at our disposal has been limited. We do not doubt
therefore that much improvement may be made in the Bill before it is finally passed in to law. But in our
opinion it is framed on the right lines. We believe for the reasons we have stated that in any reform of
civil Procedure it is essential to introduce some elasticity to give wider powers of control to the High
Courts, and to invest them with a larger discretion in regard to the conduct of cases which come before
them. Mr. Dikshit, Subordinate Judge from Bombay, has been present throughout our deliberations, and
we take this opportunity of acknowledging the help we have derived from his experience of the working
of the Code in the mofussil. We desire also to record our acknowledgements of the services of Mr. Law of
the Legislative Department who has attended to the clerical and press work to our entire satisfaction
