Proceeding contribution from Baroness Linklater of Butterstone (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 15 July 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Coroners and Justice Bill.


Coroners and Justice Bill

I thank noble Lords who have taken part in this short debate. When I referred back to the Government’s amendment on the impact of sentencing decisions, I wanted not to change anything in the Bill but to draw out in discussion a very positive implication. I was with the Government on that. Clearly there is not a lot of support for separating effectiveness and cost. I shall think about it and in the mean time I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 188D withdrawn. Clause 106, as amended, agreed.
