Proceeding contribution from Michael Ellis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Police (Detention and Bail) Bill.
Police (Detention and Bail) Bill
Does the hon. Gentleman not realise that the alleged drafting error in the 25-year-old Bail Act has been referred to before in learned texts, and that other judges have used common sense in applying the law as they thought Parliament intended? That is where there has been a departure by the judge in the instant case.
