Proceeding contribution from Lord Goodhart (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 19 July 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Fraud Bill [HL].


Fraud Bill [HL]

I do not know quite how the noble Lord, Lord Kingsland, would regard what is—or, at any rate, used to be—the practice of the auction houses. If they stated in their catalogues that a picture was by Renoir it meant that it might be by Renoir; if they said it was by Auguste Renoir it meant that it really was by Renoir.
