Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Bill

I thank him for the government amendments that he has proposed on behalf of the large number of offenders who will benefit from them. I do not wish to prolong the discussion other than to say that we will systematically monitor the impact of all these amendments and, if necessary, look again at the legislation.

Amendments 185G and 185H Moved by
