Clause 1 - Service of overseas process
Crime (International Co-operation) Bill [Lords]
9:30 am
Mr Nick Hawkins (Surrey Heath, Conservative)
Would the hon. Gentleman agree that there is a danger that countries that might later accede to the Schengen convention would, if the amendment were made, automatically fall under the provisions? Some countries with which even the hon. Gentleman might not be entirely happy might later, as a result of some bizarre decision by the EU, accede to Schengen.
