Clause 11 - Assumptions to be made in case of criminal lifestyle
Proceeds of Crime Bill
5:30 pm
Mr Norman Baker (Lewes, Liberal Democrat)
For the record, I did not say that there was no discretion. I said that a balance needed to be struck.
That subsection is, in many ways, the nub of the clause, and I will remark on it later. However, I have tabled an amendment to that subsection, which will be considered later on this afternoon, and I do not wish to be ruled out of order by discussing the issue now.
