Clause 13
Fraud Bill [Lords]
5:30 pm
Mike O'Brien (Solicitor General, Law Officers' Department; North Warwickshire, Labour)
In the end, it will be up to a judge to decide how to apply the provisions. However, I shall examine the hon. Gentleman’s point and its implications, and I shall then write to him, if that is appropriate. I suspect that there is not a lacuna, but he raises an interesting and potentially difficult point, and I ought to give it more thought. If necessary, we can return to it on Report.
