The Cork Report Archive - 2012/2013 Fund Raising Project

When Professor Muir Hunter QC passed away in 2008 his family gifted his insolvency law and policy related papers to the Muir Hunter Museum of Bankruptcy at Kingston University Law School.

The papers represent a goldmine of insolvency information, particularly in relation to the famous Cork Report and the subsequent Insolvency Act 1986. It is no exaggeration to state that Professor Hunter kept nearly all of the papers from his time (and beyond) as a member of the Cork Committee. ... This treasure trove of materials needs cataloguing and digitizing to bring it to a wider audience within the University and beyond. The Cork Archive Fund has been established to help continue the cataloguing and digitization process. Please donate and help with the maintenance of this important set of documents.
