Coroners and Justice Bill

I think that the Minister has accepted that this test is only slightly more strict than the existing test, in which case, is it really worth all this upheaval? It has not been pointed out to me what benefit there is in changing the test. The only one appears to be consistency, but I am not clear how it will help consistency in any way. As for the noble and learned Lord, Lord Woolf, I am bound to say that I disagree with him when he says that these two tests will be treated as being the same. I do not think that they will be. As a matter of common sense, judges all over the country will see this as being, and as having been intended to be, a stricter test than that which they already apply. Having said that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 189 withdrawn. Amendment 189A not moved.
