Coroners and Justice Bill

I thank the noble and learned Baroness for her support. I should re-emphasise the role of the court. There is a distinction. Eligibility is automatic, but the court must still determine whether a special measure would be likely to improve the quality of evidence, which is the essential test to be applied in all cases. Clause 86, as amended, agreed. Schedule 12 agreed. Clause 87 agreed. Clauses 88 to 90 agreed. Clause 91 : Examination of accused through intermediary Amendment 185B not moved. Debate on whether Clause 91 should stand part of the Bill.
