Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 18 January 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Digital Economy Bill [HL].


Digital Economy Bill [HL]

As I have sought to indicate, and as has been reflected in the contributions to this debate, there is a considerable range of issues, so in a sense the concept of the threshold has a range to it. I am seeking to avoid, in primary legislation, figures that would seek to determine the threshold that would have no viability with regard to certain infringements. Within the framework of the code, we can take account of the nature of potential infringements and have the flexibility that is necessary to successfully limit the infringements in their variety, which have been exposed in this debate.
