Mr Stephen Hesford (Wirral West, Labour)

I want to understand the hon. Gentleman's argument. I think that the Committee as a whole has accepted that in cases involving DNA, there is a real argument for re-examining murder and other offences. Even the hon. Gentleman accepts that. Say that, in future, DNA evidence comes to light in a case of really brutal gang rape. Is it his position that such an offence should not be included in the schedule?
