Clause 80 - Revocation of licences
Housing Bill
3:00 pm
Mr Robert Syms (Poole, Conservative)
I beg to move amendment No. 311, in
clause 80, page 53, line 43, at end insert—
'(d) where the licence holder is deemed to have committed a serious criminal offence'.
This is a fairly simple amendment, and I shall be interested to hear whether the Under-Secretary considers the Bill as drafted already to cover what it proposes. We think that the issue ought to be explored and it would be useful to have something on the record, so that the authorities that deal with the matter know the Government's intentions.
