Proceeding contribution from David Heath (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Fraud Bill [HL].
Fraud Bill [Lords]
I wish to make exactly the same point. I am unclear as to why the expression"““he is expected to safeguard””" should replace a clear reference to a fiduciary duty. The question that all Members wish to ask is: who is the ““he”” who is expected to provide the safeguard? Is it the man on the Clapham omnibus, or the judge; or will the terms of contract provide the safeguard? What does the expression ““expected to safeguard”” mean? We will clearly need to explore that issue in Committee, but if the Solicitor-General can help us to understand it now, that would be to the advantage of us all.
