Proceeding contribution from Lord Khan of Tooting (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 2 December 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Criminal Law (Amendment) (Protection of Property) Bill.
Criminal Law (Amendment) (Protection of Property) Bill
The intervention of the hon. Member for North Thanet (Mr. Gale) is useful, because it appears that the current position is that the use of barbed wire or glass is proportionate if a lad kicks his ball over a wall and is injured. If that is the case, will my hon. Friend comment on what might happen to youngsters going over a wall to get their ball back if a householder was allowed to use disproportionate and excessive means to protect his or her property?
