Proceeding contribution from Crispin Blunt (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 21 October 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Cutting Crime (Justice Reinvestment).


Cutting Crime (Justice Reinvestment)

If my right hon. Friend can find a way of pulling off that piece of alchemy, it would be extremely welcome. It would certainly be a very welcome development in intelligent policy making. As the right hon. Member for Cardiff South and Penarth (Alun Michael) said, this is a question not just of the Government changing the rhetoric but of Parliament addressing the issue, and now we are in a position to do so because in essence all three main parties are in the same place on going for evidence-based policy making. That is a welcome change from policy-based evidence making.
