Proceeding contribution from Baroness Gibson of Market Rasen (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 5 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Policing and Crime Bill.


Policing and Crime Bill

I, too, support the amendment. Had I written a speech, most of what I would have said has already been said, certainly by people who know more about this issue than me. I was not able to be here when Clause 14 was debated. I am sorry that it is in the Bill. It is a mistake and I think that we will live to regret it. We have a chance to improve Clause 16 today. I hope that my noble friend on the Front Bench, whom I respect greatly, will listen to what is being said in the Chamber and will think again about this issue.
