Proceeds of Crime Bill
12:15 pm
Mr Bob Ainsworth (Parliamentary Under-Secretary, Home Office; Coventry North East, Labour)
NCIS, the National Crime Squad and similar agencies were consulted as part of the preparation of the Bill. They were also involved in the discussion that took place before the draft Bill was produced. All those agencies are supportive of the Government's measures. We have taken their guidance into account, and they are happy with our proposals.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 2 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
