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

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for having done the reading, which has saved me from having to do it. What about the position of those of my constituents who enjoy going camping in a tent? Would a tent be classified as a building? And what about those of my constituents who have the good fortune, like many of the constituents of official Opposition Members, to own large properties that contain a big wall, a garden or piece of land and a bricks and mortar building? Would such householders receive the protection of the Bill on the piece of land between the wall and the bricks and mortar building?
