Proceeding contribution from Chris Bryant (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

Is not one of the sadnesses of the procedure that we have had to go through the fact that some Conservative Members have sought to suggest that we should try to restrict any investigation, prosecution or procedures towards prosecution in nearly every case? Sir Nicholas Lyell, the then Attorney-General, told the House following the Tony Evans case that any shooting incident must be carefully investigated. Surely that is the truth.
