Proceeding contribution from Baroness Walmsley (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 17 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Children and Young Persons Bill [HL].


Children and Young Persons Bill [HL]

My Lords, will the Minister clarify a little point about the proposals for the children plan in the review? Will it look at all options, including the radical one that was not accepted in 2000, when the noble Lord, Lord Ramsbotham, suggested that children’s custody should be taken away from the Prison Service and given to a different organisation with a child-centred focus? Will it be that broad-minded?
