Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Bill

Debate between Lord Ahmed and Lord Greaves

Wednesday 20th November 2013 Lords Chamber

[Lord Greaves]

I am grateful for the Minister’s comments, but in order to save time on Report why does he not just accept the amendment now?

[Lord Ahmad of Wimbledon]

With all things legalistic and legislative, my noble friend will agree with me that it is important, as he himself stated, to get it right. Let me assure him that we will certainly take into account his insight and expertise in ensuring that in our drafting we correct any omission, if indeed that is the case.

I hope, based on the explanations I have given, that my noble friend will be minded to withdraw the amendment.
