Proceeding contribution from Lord Kingsland (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 5 February 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill.


Criminal Justice and Immigration Bill

The Government will not be surprised to hear that I share the concerns of my noble friend Lord Onslow. If nearly 50 per cent of all violent crime is fuelled by alcohol, then at best the Government’s reaction to this amendment is complacent; at worst it is inexplicable.
