Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 6 October 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [HL].


Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [HL]

My Lords, I had not thought of the point about danger to the designated person and his family. Actually, I can see that that could be a serious concern. I am still not persuaded that Amendments 12 and 13 would inhibit the Treasury acting as the Minister described. I am sure that this is not his intention, but his response seems almost to amount to a fear that the Treasury cannot be trusted to make a sensible decision. However, although I am not persuaded, I will not pursue the matter further so I beg leave to withdraw Amendment 12. Amendment 12 withdrawn. Amendment 13 not moved. Clause 3, as amended, agreed. Clause 4 : Duration of designation Clause 4 : Duration of designation Amendment 14 not moved. Amendment 15 Moved by
