Proceeding contribution from Lord Strathclyde (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 20 July 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Public Confidence in the Media and the Police.

Public Confidence in the Media and the Police

My Lords, I very much welcome the noble Lord’s support for the Prime Minister this afternoon, I, too, thought he did splendidly. The noble Lord says that there is a lacuna on the ““fit and proper person”” test and he particularly wants to ensure that those who are making the test should themselves be beyond reproach. That must be an ambition for us all and it is the kind of issue that may well come out of the inquiry. I know that the noble Lord will be the first to draw it to our attention as we debate these matters.
