Proceeding contribution from Lord Avebury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 November 2005. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Licensing Act 2003 (Second Appointed Day) Order 2005.


Licensing Act 2003 (Second Appointed Day) Order 2005

My Lords, the Minister’s description of what happened at chucking-out time might have been true 10 years ago, but now in the West End, for example, closing times extend between 11 pm and 3 am. The crime figures hour by hour for that period are more or less evenly spread out, so the argument falls to the ground.
