Clause 68 - Designations under section 67: further considerations
Housing Bill
2:30 pm
Mr Edward Davey (Shadow Secretary of State for the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister, Office of the Deputy Prime Minister Local Government & the Regions; Kingston and Surbiton, Liberal Democrat)
Because acceptable behaviour contracts are not a statutory device, the local authority need not restrict them to children. One can use such techniques, and many local authorities have done so successfully. I would be out of order if I continued along that path, so I shall beg to ask leave of the Committee to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
Clause 68 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
Clause 69 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
