Proceeding contribution from Andrew Dismore (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
I think not, but the book provides helpful guidance as to what a building is in law. Professor Smith says:"““Many things which have been held to be buildings for other purposes will not be buildings for the purposes of the Theft Act—for example, a garden wall, a railway embankment or a tunnel under the road.””" That is, perhaps, self-evident, unless one is, for example, a railway worker or a roadman.
