Proceeding contribution from Lord Wedderburn of Charlton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 11 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill.
Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill
Perhaps I can ask the noble and learned Lord a question. We have here a rather oddly constructed Cross Bench, but I am sitting with him and not against him. Does he agree that a body such as John Lewis, which is not incorporated, should be covered by the Bill? I say that with no hint that that firm would be liable for anything, but such bodies are not unknown in commerce and are not incorporated.
