Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill

My Lords, I am grateful to my noble friend the Minister for the explanation that he offered. The purpose of my amendment is not to dwell too much on whether it is half or two-thirds of the sentence; all I care about is the need to look carefully at whether the supervision period is affected by the decision. I would be very grateful if the Minister could write to me before Report. It may be that his explanation will suffice in this matter. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 179BA withdrawn. Clause 116 agreed. Schedule 19 agreed. Clause 117 : Power to change test for release on licence of certain prisoners Amendment 179C Clause 117 : Power to change test for release on licence of certain prisoners Amendment 179C Moved by
