Proceeding contribution from Lord West of Spithead (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 24 October 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Serious Crime Bill [HL].


Serious Crime Bill [HL]

My Lords, I beg to move that the House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 61. These offences were included in the Schedule during the passage of the Bill through another place in response to a commitment made by the Attorney-General in her previous role. We are grateful to the noble Baroness, Lady Anelay, who suggested that we look at including the concept of armed robbery within the Schedule. Having looked at how best to achieve that, Vernon Coaker brought forward this amendment in another place, and I hope that this House feels able to accept it. Moved, That the House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 61.—(Lord West of Spithead.)
