Proceeding contribution from Lord Waddington (Conservative) 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 have no objection to this amendment, but the public must be getting increasingly confused. What are the real chances of courts passing these maximum sentences when the Lord Chief Justice is doing his level best to persuade the courts to pass shorter sentences?
