Proceeding contribution from Paul Robert Holmes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 March 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Crime and Security Bill.


Crime and Security Bill

The Government are trying to introduce a complex and bureaucratic procedure to deal with the problem of wheel-clamping on private land, which is often carried out by cowboys who are effectively indulging in extortion. We made that point in Committee, and experienced a glorious defeat by one vote. It would be much simpler to follow the Scottish procedure and simply outlaw wheel-clamping on private land.
