Clause 51 - Controlling a child prostitute or
Sexual Offences Bill [Lords]
10:45 am
Ms Sandra Gidley (Romsey, Liberal Democrat)
I said at the beginning that the amendments were tabled to ascertain whether the concerns of the Metropolitan police were realistic. The police have to deal with such things in practice, so I was quite taken by their arguments. However, I understand the point about the wider aspects of prostitution, and that there will be further legislation. I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
Clause 51 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
Clause 52 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
