Proceeding contribution from Lord Bach (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 2 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Bribery Bill [HL].
Bribery Bill [HL]
My Lords, I have to confess that it is a long time since I was involved in any case that involved the defence of duress. But I have no reason to believe—I am sure that I will be corrected very quickly by the Box if I am wrong because I do not want to mislead the House—that the offence of duress should not at least in theory be available to someone in the position posed by the noble and learned Lord.
