Proceeding contribution from Gerry Sutcliffe (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 4 December 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill.


Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill

As I understand it, the court would make the order, and it would identify a responsible individual who is to respond to the courts. I was asked to look at those issues in greater detail, and I am prepared to do so. We are working on those details. Unfortunately, through no fault of the Committee or any hon. Member, although we are trying to move the issues forward, time has caught up with us now that we have reached Report and Third Reading. I shall look to develop the themes that my hon. Friend has raised while we make progress with the Bill, which I hope will go to another place this evening.
