Proceeding contribution from Baroness Featherstone (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Violent Crime Reduction Bill 2005-06.


Violent Crime Reduction Bill

Does the Minister not accept that the judiciary, in its judicious interpretation of the phrase that the court ““may”” require a report, would apply the provision only to cases where they deemed it necessary to receive a medical report? Such a requirement would therefore not have an adverse effect on the vast number of drinking banning orders that may be imposed.
