Serious Crime Bill [HL]

If ever there were a hint that I should be brief! I can sometimes take a hint, and this is one of those occasions. The Minister argued that the Government have departed from the norm by providing for express delegation and that there is tighter control than usual. I am glad that there is a departure from the norm because serious crime prevention orders themselves are a departure from the norm. I shall look carefully at Hansard to see if what the Minister said satisfies me before we perhaps return to this matter on Report. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 90 to 92 not moved.] Schedule 2 agreed to. Clauses 36 to 38 agreed to.
