Clause 53 - Aims of youth justice system
Justice (Northern Ireland) Bill
5:00 pm

Mr Mark Francois (Rayleigh, Conservative)
You asked for brief interventions, Mr. Pike, and I shall attempt to comply.
The hon. Gentleman is putting forward liberal justice with a small and a large ''L''. He concedes that amendment No. 223 may not be as well drafted as amendment No. 278. Will he withdraw his amendment, so that we can concentrate on amendment No. 278.
