Proceeding contribution from Lord Mackay of Clashfern (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 13 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Bribery Bill [HL].


Bribery Bill [HL]

My Lords, I agree with what has been said. I have two short questions. First, if this was necessary, why was it not in the draft Bill? Did something happen in the consideration of these matters? Secondly, can the Minister give us some idea of the circumstances in which it is envisaged that this clause might be appropriate? Can he give an example of a situation in which the enforcement agencies would require to bribe people?
