Clause 13 - Requests for assistance from overseas authorities
Crime (International Co-operation) Bill [Lords]
9:30 am

Mr Nick Hawkins (Surrey Heath, Conservative)
With great pleasure, Mr. Benton.
I am genuinely grateful to the Minister for his reassurances on some of the matters that I raised, and I am particularly grateful for his confirmation that we were right to probe them. He is aware that there was, as I said, considerable and interesting debate in another place about these points. It is helpful that what the Minister said will be on the record. I do not seek to prolong the debate, although it has been useful. In light of the Minister's reassurances and the numerical changes, I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
Clause 13 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
