Debate
Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) BillContribution
Everybody knows that the police have authority to do this. No matter what we write about this, people will still see ordinary civil people like themselves going into a house. These officials will have to give a lot of explanation. Before you know where you are, neighbours are probably being called in to come and assist, and the thing could end up very messy. That little line 6 just needs to be deleted, and then the rest of the Bill can continue as it is.
