Clause 137 - Powers of Tribunal
Gambling Bill
2:45 pm
Mr Malcolm Moss (Shadow Minister, Home Affairs; North East Cambridgeshire, Conservative)
I beg to move amendment No. 265, in clause 137, page 61, line 17, at end insert
'including reference to what will constitute reasonable belief for the purposes of section 60 and other defences under the Act.'.
This is an attempt to tease out what would constitute reasonable belief about a person's age, which would hopefully provide a defence under clause 60, and other defences available under the Act, which could be usefully incorporated into a code of practice issued by the commission, possibly under clause 23.
