Fraud Bill [HL]

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble and learned Lord for giving way. My brow did wrinkle—I apologise for wrinkling—simply because the noble and learned Lord suggested that it was the collapse of the Jubilee Line case that prompted the Government to implement Section 43 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003. I can assure him that it was not. It was passed in 2003 and the decision to implement it had been taken before the Jubilee Line case. I have never suggested, and I do not suggest, that the Jubilee Line case, which has particular features, is the reason or a justification for the measure. That is the reason for my wrinkle.
