Proceeding contribution from Lord Russell-Johnston (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 13 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Forced Marriage (Civil Protection) Bill [HL].
Forced Marriage (Civil Protection) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I am grateful to my noble friend, but it is not right to give the impression that there is unanimity in the view that this matter should not be criminalised. There are a number of significant people who work in the area, both in the police and among the NGOs, who feel that that is the right course.
