§ Lord HardieMy Lords, I beg to move that the House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 63.
I wish to speak also to Amendments Nos. 64 to 77 inclusive. These amendments improve and clarify the drafting of the clauses on extended sentences. In particular, they bring the provisions for Scotland into line with those for England and Wales by requiring a court to obtain a report before imposing an extended sentence and by specifying the role of the Parole Board in relation to review and the continued detention on extended sentences of prisoners who have been recalled to custody.
§ Moved, That the House do agree with the Commons in their Amendment No. 63.—(Lord Hardie.)
§ On Question, Motion agreed to.
