Mark Simmonds (Shadow Minister, Health; Boston and Skegness, Conservative)
I am grateful to the Minister for that answer. Perhaps she could add to that list of paragraphs in the letter that she is going to write a brief explanation of the last point that I made regarding paragraph 7(1)(a). In other words, why is it necessary to have as grounds for the seizure the purposes of the authority’s functions relating to the granting or variation of a licence, which would include the variation of a licence at the behest of a licensee? I cannot think of any situation where anything would be seized in those circumstances.
