Proceeding contribution from Lord Bach (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 15 October 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (Youth Conditional Cautions: Code of Practice) Order 2009.
Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (Youth Conditional Cautions: Code of Practice) Order 2009
I do not think that it is possible to do anything in terms of young people, and I am not sure that the noble Earl would want that. We are prevented from naming the young person involved. All we can say is that "a young person" received a youth conditional caution, which would not assist anyone. For adults, I suppose that it would be possible to publish the names of people who had not been prosecuted but who were subject to a conditional caution. I understand that they would be rehabilitated within three months of that caution in any event. Again, I suppose that it would be possible, in theory at least, for such a caution to be mentioned in a local newspaper, but I am not sure that that is what we want.
