Proceeding contribution from Greg Knight (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Animal Welfare Bill.
Animal Welfare Bill
Is not the word ““may”” commonly used in such circumstances? Is it not a way of drafting designed to indicate that the inspector shall serve the notice? If we change the word ““may”” to ““must””, how much further is my hon. Friend taking the argument? Is he suggesting that the inspector would commit an offence if he failed to serve the notice?
