Proceeding contribution from Lord Whitty (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 12 January 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Digital Economy Bill [HL].

Digital Economy Bill [HL]

My noble friend is being a little disingenuous. We are not talking about simply who receives the letter; the question of the subscriber runs through all the gradations of action. The only person against whom action can be taken under these provisions is the subscriber. The question of the noble Earl, Lord Erroll, applies all the way through. It is no use claiming that this clause relates only to the first letter, which does not matter much, because it applies all the way through.
