Proceeding contribution from Baroness Neville-Jones (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 October 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Policing and Crime Bill.

Policing and Crime Bill

It is hard to believe that in a telephonic age it is not possible to ring up and get agreement from a senior officer. It is very important that these powers do not appear to be exercised erroneously or arbitrarily. I appreciate the fact that there will be a code of practice, but some safeguards in law would be extremely helpful. I shall read this debate again in Hansard and I should like to consider what view to take. In the mean time, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 152T withdrawn. Amendment 152U not moved. Amendments 152V and 152W had been withdrawn from the Marshalled List. Amendment 152X not moved.
