Proceeding contribution from Lord Razzall (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 6 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL].

Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL]

I support the noble Viscount and shall speak to Amendment No. 179 in this group. I am much obliged to the Trading Standards Institute, which has made the suggestion reflected in my amendment. It is proposed that money from fixed and variable monetary penalties should be passed to the relevant consolidated fund. My amendment would permit money to be used for the benefit of local authorities and business to fund cases of national importance and relevance that would, for example, establish points of law. I look forward to the Government’s response.
