Proceeding contribution from Jack Straw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Parliamentary Standards Bill.


Parliamentary Standards Bill

Everyone who has looked at the issue of bribery has accepted that there has to be a provision similar to what is in clause 15 of the draft Bribery Bill. That has been accepted across the House, and approved by it. I hope that that is a useful explanation.
