Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harris of Richmond (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 22 June 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Policing and Crime Bill.


Policing and Crime Bill

I am grateful to the noble Lord for clarifying what is without doubt a very blurred area. I am also grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Harris of Haringey, for supporting my amendments. That was an unusual but very welcome addition to our debate. I am grateful also to my noble friend Lord Bradshaw, who will be speaking at greater length as we debate the Bill. I do not agree with the Minister—he will not be surprised to hear me say that. I keep on about the powers of the Secretary of State. They have been thoroughly aired and we will probably debate them again later in the Bill. However, at this stage I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 14 withdrawn. Amendments 15 and 16 not moved. Clause 4 agreed. Amendment 17 not moved.
