Proceeding contribution from Earl of Listowel (Crossbench) 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 the Minister for giving way and I appreciate his great care in responding to these questions. Is he concerned, as I am, given the response of the noble and learned Lord, Lord Woolf, that others may misunderstand the Government’s intentions and, far from making the guidelines slightly more strict, it might have the opposite effect and the judiciary might treat the guidance with less respect and more freely? I am concerned. I would like some clarity, please.
