Proceeding contribution from David Davis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 October 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Prison Estate.


Prison Estate

May I start by thanking the Home Secretary for advance sight of his statement. May I also take this chance—my first opportunity—to congratulate him on his management of the alleged terrorist plot in August, which, if I may say so, I think he handled rather well. I am breathless in my admiration for the brazen way in which he claimed credit in his statement for the Tory initiative on increased penalties for knife crime, but of that more later.
