Proceeding contribution from David TC Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 18 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Crime and Security Bill.

Crime and Security Bill

I thank my namesake for giving way; I am intervening at my peril. There may be some genuine confusion in such situations. When the police take somebody's details, they conduct a police national computer check that will often come back saying, "No, not wanted." The police may have assumed that the person was known to them, but they would not have known that he was on the DNA database and may well have been referring to the fact that his name came up on the computer records as being known, but not wanted.
