Clause 11 - Remit
Human Tissue Bill
10:15 am
Dr Andrew Murrison (Westbury, Conservative)
I am very grateful to the Minister for that comprehensive account. I am reassured because we seem to be singing from the same hymn sheet. The amendments may come to pass as a result of the consultation exercise that she told us about today, and I welcome that necessary exercise. It is a pity that it was not conducted before we drafted the Bill. I am also reassured by the Minister's assurance that she is prepared to use the powers granted to her under clause 11(4) in the event of someone like Professor von Hagens needing to be investigated and his activities needing to be restricted in some way. With that in mind, I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
