Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 11 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill.

Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill

It is just that I have a briefing here, which the noble Baroness probably has herself, which says, "““in a statement to the Assembly on 12th October, the Welsh Minister for Social Justice and Local Government … offered a compromise: ‘I have told the Home Secretary that we believe a compromise whereby, in Wales, police authorities remain, but with the elected commissioner as chair, would offer the democratic accountability that the Home Office is seeking, while maintaining the important strengths of the current system’””."
