Proceeding contribution from Lord West of Spithead (Labour) 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 can assure the House that that is absolutely not the case. As the noble Baroness rightly points out, some of these things could be looked at in such a way, but the guidance will be drawn up in detail with the relevant agencies. Moreover, I believe that people generally tend to apply things with common sense, and all this will be refined in the drafting to make sure that it is clear. However, if a series of activities were to take place, particularly if people were shooting firearms and having sex close to the windows so that everyone could see them, there comes a time where even if they were students, others might say that something should be done. We cannot give them complete licence. These examples are indicative, but given that the guidance will cover the concerns that have been raised by the noble Earl, Lord Onslow, the noble Baroness, Lady Miller, and other speakers, I hope that they will feel able not to press their amendments and that the House is willing to agree to government Amendment No. 107A.
