Proceeding contribution from Lord Stevens of Kirkwhelpington (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 May 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill.
Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill
I also support the amendment, because if the argument is that police commissioners are elected, surely the deputy must also be elected if he acts in their place. There is nothing more bizarre than if someone was appointed to the power, bearing in mind that a commissioner might be ill for six or nine months. That surely would be a recipe for disaster.
