Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Norwood Green (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 1 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Digital Economy Bill [HL].

Digital Economy Bill [HL]

I really must correct my noble friend. We are not implying guilt at all. We talk about an apparent infringement. We cannot indicate guilt because we do not know whether the subscriber was the person who perpetrated the act in question. I have made that clear and I wish that my noble friend would not imply that certain things are in the Bill when that is manifestly not the case. We take great care to ensure that the first letter—the first approach—talks about an apparent infringement. That is not by any means an indication of guilt.
