Proceeding contribution from Lord Thomas of Gresford (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 7 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Bribery Bill [HL].


Bribery Bill [HL]

Does the noble and learned Lord agree that all those sitting in their barges, waiting to go through the canal, would be dissuaded from giving any pourboire to an official if they knew that they were committing a criminal offence? Is that not the thrust of the legislation?
