Proceeding contribution from Lord Kingsland (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 23 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill.


Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill

My Lords, I am most grateful to the noble Lord. We—that is to say, the Opposition Front Bench—have not tabled an amendment on the specific point. Our preference would be for a much shorter period but renewable. That would give the court flexibility to deal with both the procedural and the evidential problems. I do not know whether the Minister would be prepared to respond to this, but I would like to think that he will look at this matter before Third Reading. As I said, it is a practical point and one that I think has some substance.
