Proceeding contribution from Adrian Bailey (Labour) 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
I fully understand my hon. Friend’s point but I am worried about the statistics that she cited. It appears that the courts regard assaulting a policeman as less significant than assaulting a member of the public. Are discussions being held with the Sentencing Guidelines Council to assess why that is the case and whether anything is being done about it?
