Proceeding contribution from Lord Thomas of Gresford (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 16 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Violent Crime Reduction Bill.


Violent Crime Reduction Bill

My Lords, I am encouraged by the Minister’s words. I hope that local authorities can be made accountable for these charges and that they will be able to demonstrate a relationship between the level of the charge and the costs that are incurred by additional safeguards within alcohol disorder zones. I hope that that is included in guidance. I wish that we could see these regulations and I certainly wish that we could see the 2,000 pages of guidance that will result from this Bill. A huge amount will be attached to almost every clause. I am content and I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 19 to 21 not moved.] Clause 16 [Designation of alcohol disorder zones]:
