Clause 76 - Conduct and benefit
Proceeds of Crime Bill
Public Bill Committees, 4 December 2001, 4:30 pm
Mr Norman Baker (Lewes, Liberal Democrat)
I am very happy with that. I am grateful for the Minister's explanation and that he believes that the Bill is consistent with the European convention on human rights. That is a key element, and he explained why. Will he tell us now, or later, in addition to his helpful clarification, where the matter is implicit in this complex Bill, so that I can understand how the bits marry up and be assured that the understanding that he gave the Committee cannot subsequently be misunderstood by people who interpret the law?
I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
