Proceeding contribution from Lord Bassam of Brighton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 24 January 2007. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Sexual Offences Act 2003 (Amendment of Schedules 3 and 5) Order 2007.


Sexual Offences Act 2003 (Amendment of Schedules 3 and 5) Order 2007

We seem to have a comity of view across the Committee, which of course is highly desirable, and I am grateful for that consensus. I am also grateful for the noble Viscount’s gracious remarks. The Government were very pleased with the outcome after the noble Baroness, Lady Anelay, tabled her amendment. Clearly, it has sparked further consideration and I think that we now have something which not only is workable but covers all bases. I am also grateful for the support of the noble Baroness, Lady Harris, on this issue. On Question, Motion agreed to.
