Clause 59 - Restrictions on use of statements
Serious Organised Crime and Police Bill
10:15 am
Mr Andrew Mitchell (Shadow Minister, Economic Affairs; Sutton Coldfield, Conservative)
I beg to move amendment No. 213, in clause 59, page 32, line 37, leave out 'criminal'.
The amendment, which was tabled by my hon. Friend the Member for Beaconsfield, who as the Committee knows has to be at a memorial service today, deals with a small but important point. I seek clarification of why ''criminal'' is included but the gamut of civil cases is not. If she can make that clear, I will happily withdraw the amendment.
