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

I am happy to examine all the options. Indeed, it was suggested today that I look at public procurement by companies that have been convicted, and consider whether or not we can take action. I have to qualify everything that I say, as we must examine these things within the available time scales, notwithstanding the reminder from the hon. Member for Beaconsfield that the measure is a carry-over Bill. I will endeavour to examine the issues in detail, and respond to the House appropriately.
