Proceeding contribution from Lord McCabe (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 March 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill.
Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill (Programme) (No. 2)
I am saying quite simply that the nature of the existing powers, as I understand them, would give the Secretary of State the right to intervene. If the Government do not have faith in their own system, it seems right that they should have the power to intervene. However, what I do not want is a scheme that says, ““We're in favour of police commissioners, but by the way we're going to limit their power when it comes to the area where we think there could be electoral disadvantage for us.””
