Proceeding contribution from Lord Bach (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 26 October 2005. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Avian Flu.
Avian Flu
My Lords, if the case is proved the penalties will be extremely severe. I cannot tell her what the maximum prison sentence is. When I write to noble Lords after this debate I will include the maximum for the noble Baroness. No-one should be under any illusions; this will be an extremely serious offence, and my guess is that the courts will take a serious view of it.
