Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harris of Richmond (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 3 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Policing and Crime Bill.
Policing and Crime Bill
My Lords, I support the noble Baroness, Lady Henig, because the amendments are designed to improve the current senior appointments panel proposals to guarantee tripartite balance in its membership and to be much clearer about its functions. I particularly welcome her points about the pre-appointment screening, with which I wholeheartedly agree. Once again, I feel that the powers of the Secretary of State are being brought to the fore, whereas it would be much better if we trusted the tripartite structure to deliver on these proposals.
