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
No. As I think I have discussed with my right hon. Friend before, the conditions in the code will apply to irresponsibility equally, whether in the on-trade or the off-trade. The code will catch irresponsible promotions wherever they are happening. In response to my hon. Friend the Member for Northampton, North (Ms Keeble), our existing tough penalties for retailers who sell to under-age drinkers will be further strengthened in the Bill, and we are bolstering the police's powers to tackle young people caught drinking.
