Coroners and Justice Bill

Would the noble Baroness accept that she has challenged the amendment with doing far more than it sets out to do? The case that she is making is that the effect of this amendment would be to change the offence and turn it into murder two, as it were. Surely that is not the case. It is still murder and potentially susceptible to a life sentence. All this amendment does is open up some space in which the jury and the judge between them are able to modify the sentence.
