Terrorism Bill

Proceeding contribution from Rob Marris (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Terrorism Bill.
Clause 8(4) states that a summary conviction in England and Wales could result in a sentence of up to 12 months, but in Scotland only six months. Why is there a discrepancy?
