Clause 1 - Closure notice
Anti-social Behaviour Bill
10:45 am

Mr Nick Hawkins (Surrey Heath, Conservative)
My hon. Friend the Member for Rayleigh (Mr. Francois) points out that perhaps the hon. Member for Ludlow (Matthew Green) has not yet recovered from the bad night that he and his party had last Thursday. Until he intervened, we were having a serious debate on serious issues. I do not think that his was a sensible intervention—nobody is proposing that we have armed local authority officials. He will see later how we wish to deal with serving notice.
