Clause 30 - Authorisations: supplemental
Anti-social Behaviour Bill
11:00 am
Mr Matthew Green (Ludlow, Liberal Democrat)
I hope that that will be the case, and that the Minister will confirm it. However, Conservative Members have tabled an amendment that states that it ''must be recorded forthwith''.
We are trying to address a potential problem. I am sure that the Minister will say that the amendments are completely unnecessary because the matter is dealt with in other clauses. However, the purpose of consideration in Committee is to ascertain where problems lie. This mixed group of amendments deals with the notification of dispersal and how it is recorded, so that if such cases come to court they
can be properly dealt with. Finally, in what circumstances does the Minister foresee imprisonment being used?
