Proceeding contribution from Baroness Smith of Malvern (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Policing and Crime Bill.


Policing and Crime Bill

Members will see later this week, the provisions dealing with fixed penalty notices for cannabis possession.
