Clause 36 - Taking a conveyance without authority:extension of prosecution time-limits
Vehicles (Crime) Bill
2:45 pm

Mr John Bercow (Buckingham, Conservative)
Although what the Minister said sounds eminently sensible, and I might well choose to withdraw the amendment, it is very unfortunate if that sort of excuse has been used at any stage. It would be quite improper for a public official to do so, as it would not be in the spirit of the legislation under which a matter was being considered.
