Clause 1
Health and Safety (Offences) Bill
9:45 am
Andrew George (St Ives, Liberal Democrat)
I assume that the right hon. Gentleman wishes his Bill to be inflation-proof, or would rather that in years to come, we do not have to revisit the merits of having this legislation in the first place. Surely, it would be advantageous if such an amendment could be introduced to make this legislation inflation-proof. Is the right hon. Gentleman telling the Committee that he is not able to accept the new clause for some procedural reason that the rest of us do not follow?
