Clause 171 - Codes of practice
Extradition Bill
3:00 pm
Mr Nick Hawkins (Surrey Heath, Conservative)
I did not expect the Minister to say anything other than that, but at least I have said on the record that it would be helpful for the Government to consider the issue. It would be helpful if the business managers, notwithstanding the constraints on time, allowed the codes to come before the House as a whole. I say that because the Minister stresses that Parliament will have an opportunity to consider the matter when we have the codes. If we end up with only a short debate in Committee, that would not fulfil what he said earlier, which is why I am flagging up the issue now.
Question put and agreed to.
Clause 171 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
