Proceeding contribution from Earl of Mar and Kellie (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 17 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill.


Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill

Can the Minister explain whether the police are in any danger over deaths that result from hot-pursuit vehicle chases? When it was announced earlier this week that two young men had died on the Underground while running away from what I think was a graffiti bombing and video trip, there was an implication in the news media that they had been chased by staff away from something that they should not have been doing. I hope that the Bill covers that. Can the Minister help me on that?
