Proceeding contribution from Lord Acton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 18 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Police and Justice Bill.


Police and Justice Bill

My Lords, the noble Lord, Lord Ramsbotham, suggested several important refinements, but in general I offer my thanks and congratulations to the Government on arriving at such a satisfactory conclusion, particularly with regard to the Chief Inspector of Prisons. I especially thank my noble friend Lady Scotland for the partshe has played in this happy result. I never like disagreeing with her, and I am more than happy to be at one with her again.
