Proceeding contribution from Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 3 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Emergency Workers (Protection) Bill.


Emergency Workers (Protection) Bill

The incidents that I have been made aware of are to do with binge-drinking, or drink-related violence in hospitals. While the Bill is focusing on protecting workers, as the right hon. Member for Swansea, West (Mr. Williams) said, a similar amount of work must be done to educate people to realise what they are doing. Does the hon. Gentleman agree that the 24-hour licensing laws have exacerbated the current problem?
