Clause 2 - Part 1 warrant and certificate
Extradition Bill
11:00 am
Mr Alistair Carmichael (Orkney and Shetland, Liberal Democrat)
In some jurisdictions, a distinction is made between imprisonment and detention. In my experience, detention means custodial detention for people under 21 and imprisonment is appropriate only for those over 21. Another distinction is that detention usually takes place in a young offenders institution. Does the hon. Gentleman want to remove such distinctions from the scope of the Bill?
