Criminal Justice Bill 2004: Committee Stage.

 

9:00 pm

Derek McDowell (Labour)

——who only does good, and for authority and the contempt shown for humanity in terms of someone doing injury to a person in those circumstances are almost unbelievable. I have never heard of a fireman who went out in his tender to do ill. I welcome that Members of both Houses said that they were shocked by this type of behaviour.

The advantage of this provision is that if someone throws a stone at a fireman attending a fire and misses, he or she will be in serious trouble. We are not even discussing the people who hit the fireman.
