Bribery Bill [HL]

My Lords, we learnt in Committee that the Americans provide guidance in their system and it was that which convinced me that we ought to as well. I hope that the Government will look at the American guidance and make sure that the guidance issued by all major economic powers is as closely linked as possible so that people cannot drive even Cinderella-like coaches between it. It is important that this approach should be dealt with on as broad a basis as possible.
