Proceeding contribution from Lord Dholakia (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 4 July 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Police and Justice Bill.


Police and Justice Bill

I thank the Minister, but the difference is that custody officers still have powers to take a decision, despite the fact that the CPS may not have reached a decision or may be late in reaching it. I shall take this matter up with the advisers who suggested this amendment to us and discuss it with them. In the mean time, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. Clause 9 agreed to.
