Coroners and Justice Bill

My Lords, I am grateful to the Minister for his response and to other noble Lords for their contributions. The Minister recognises that we are merely trying to reinsert a recommendation of the Law Commission. As the noble Baroness, Lady Murphy, said, the omission of developmental immaturity from Clause 46 is particularly serious in the context of the abolition of doli incapax. We have discussed this matter previously. I hope that the Minister accepts the reasoning behind the amendment. We shall consider carefully all the points he has raised and reflect on them. In the mean time, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 57 withdrawn. Amendments 58 and 59 not moved. Clause 48 : Partial defence to murder: loss of control Amendment 60 Clause 48 : Partial defence to murder: loss of control Amendment 60 Moved by
