Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Bill

I am sorry that the noble Lord cannot offer me much more succour on this amendment. My point was that there already is an agreement, bound by statute and signed up to in 2000, between the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO), the Health and Safety Executive and the noble Lord’s former department, the Home Office, for which he speaks today. That seems to recognise that, however hazardous the training, it should take place in an environment that is, to a certain extent, controlled. Trying to be helpful to the Committee, we tabled the amendments with that in mind. Obviously, the noble Lord does not agree with me, so I will look very carefully at what he has said and consider whether to table the amendment on Report. In the mean time I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
