An enquiry by DR. TOM HADDEN Lecturer in Law.
University of Kent
If you are a small shopkeeper and you accept payment by cheque and the cheque bounces, there is not much you can do about it because of the present state of the law on dud cheques.
Tom Hadden has interviewed shopkeepers. security men. bankers, and con-men and has come to the conclusion that the law must be changed to protect the public.
