Proceeding contribution from Lord Clarke of Nottingham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 29 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill.
Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill
Without fettering judicial discretion, I think I can give that assurance. There are all sorts of grounds on which bail can be refused. We are saying that where it is likely that a person will not anyway be imprisoned when they come up for trial, they should not be refused bail.
