Clause 11 - Assumptions to be made in case of criminal lifestyle
Proceeds of Crime Bill
5:30 pm
Mr Mark Lazarowicz (Edinburgh North and Leith, Labour/Co-operative)
The hon. Gentleman said that the clause allows no discretion to the court, but subsection (6)(b) states that the court is allowed not to make an acquired assumption if
``there would be a serious risk of injustice if the assumption were made.''
Does that not offer the court the type of discretion that the hon. Gentleman seeks?
