Proceeding contribution from Lord Thomas of Gresford (Liberal Democrat) 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]

It does not say that in the Bill at all. He is not a member of the security services or any other agency. If that is the case, surely the Minister ought to make it absolutely explicit in the Bill that the co-accused, the person who receives the money, is not guilty if the police officer, for example, succeeds in his defence.
