Proceeding contribution from Lord Bassam of Brighton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 18 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill.
Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill
My understanding is that that is a matter for administrative arrangements within the CPS. The papers are automatically sent to CPS headquarters and, in most cases, the matter is that branch level, so a distance can be achieved here and the system should work quite properly. Of course, the default position if people are unsatisfied with the DPP's judgment is that that can be questioned by judicial review.
