Proceeding contribution from Lady Saltoun of Abernethy (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 12 March 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill.
Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill
May I ask the noble Lord, Lord Henley, for a little clarification? Proposed new subsection (2) states that, "““subsection (1) does not apply where the individual buys or attempts to buy the tobacco or cigarette papers at the request of … a constable, or … a weights and measures inspector””." Does that mean that a constable or a weights and measures inspector may ask a child to go into a shop and buy cigarettes or tobacco papers in order for him to see whether he can catch the shopkeeper out selling them?
