Proceeding contribution from Laura Moffatt (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 13 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Safety (Offences) Bill.
Health and Safety (Offences) Bill
My hon. Friend makes an important point. Does she agree that the introduction of a prison sentence will prevent some of the trade-off from going on? Many of us were fearful that someone might pass off a fine as a cost to their business. A prison sentence is very much more serious.
