Proceeding contribution from Lord Hylton (Crossbench) 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, the safeguards in the first three amendments in this group are essential. There is, no doubt, already some experience of what happens as a result of the compulsory closing of a drug-dealing house or premises. That is a fairly limited category, whereas the powers conferred by this Bill go much wider. As the noble Earl, Lord Onslow, pointed out, they are very likely to affect children, who may be in no way responsible for the unacceptable conduct of their parents or other relatives. It is incumbent on the Government to respond on the issue of safeguards.
