Proceeding contribution from Earl of Erroll (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 March 2019. It occurred during Debate on bill on Offensive Weapons Bill.
Offensive Weapons Bill
The noble Lord, Lord Paddick, is absolutely correct, as Part 3 of the Digital Economy Act provides. In her response, the Minister said that the sender would not know whether they were sending to a residential address. A UK business has exactly the same problem, yet she was using this to justify blocking UK sales. I do not see how she can apply one rule to UK companies and another to foreign companies. We need to be even-handed.
