There is some nice discussion of the relationship between comprehension and
Law V in some papers by Nino Cocchiarella. Check out "Cantor's Power-Set
Theorem Versus Frege's Double-Correlation Thesis", History and Philosophy
of Logic 13 (1992), 179-201. Another paper that deals with these issues is
my "The Consistency of Predicative Fragments of Frege's Grundgesetze der
Artithmetik", History and Philosophy of Logic 17 (1996), 209-20. A question
raised there, whether the Delta-1-1 fragment is consistent, is answered in
Kai Wehmeier, "Consistent Fragments of Grundgesetze and the Existence of
Non-Logical Objects", Synthese 121 (1999), 309-28.
