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

Absolutely. That is also protected by other parts of the convention and the Human Rights Act. The Joint Committee on Human Rights has examined the matter on two occasions, first in the context of the Criminal Justice (Justifiable Conduct) Bill, which the hon. Member for North Thanet introduced in 2004. The Committee reached the firm conclusion that the Bill would not be compliant with our obligations under human rights law.
