Proceeding contribution from Tony McNulty (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 30 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Violent Crime Reduction Bill.


Violent Crime Reduction Bill

As was the case with the last clutch of Lords amendments, although this grouping has the broad heading of ““Miscellaneous and minor amendments””, some of the amendments in it deal with important matters. Lords amendments Nos. 67 to 68 and 105 to 110 simply close loopholes in the legislation on ticket touting that are apparently being exploited by touts. Lords amendments Nos. 69 and 79 are on the power to enter and search the homes of registered sex offenders. In both cases, we agree with the Lords in their amendments.
