Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Chesterton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 25 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Violent Crime Reduction Bill.


Violent Crime Reduction Bill

My Lords, a question that concerns me is whether this may take up a huge amount of time for the school staff. The Minister referred to using security firms. If using those firms is to become a regular matter of course—as it obviously has become in American schools—presumably that would mean staff do not have to be present. Or, if the security firm’s staff is used for this security clearance, would there be one member of staff? How does the approach work in that case?
