Part of Children and Adoption Bill [Lords] – in a Public Bill Committee am 3:15 pm ar 16 Mawrth 2006.
That was a slightly more helpful intervention than some I experienced earlier. There cannot be a disproportionate response because to allow that would risk conflict with human rights and other legislation. The claim that I think the hon. Gentleman is making, that proportionality is unduly prescriptive, must be read in that context.
This is a technical schedule. It makes the necessary links between the Bill and existing legislation, and makes the changes that we want in respect of the parameters of enforcement orders. I hope that that will satisfy the hon. Gentleman.
