Clause 7 - Establishment and conduct of reviews
Domestic Violence, Crime and Victims Bill [Lords]
11:15 am
Mr Hilton Dawson (Lancaster and Wyre, Labour)
The party political divide is showing itself. In all seriousness, I believe that my right hon. Friend the Solicitor-General, the Minister for Children and officials from the whole range of Government offices will clarify this very important point. If there is a point to further legislation, I hope that that legislation will be produced. If existing guidance and the development of policy under the Children Bill will deal effectively with these issues, I see no point in taking part in the further distraction that pressing the amendment would entail. For that reason I shall withdraw it, but I hope that my right hon. Friend will support the Committee by providing good, clear information about the way in which the various aspects of policy will operate. I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
