Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 December 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Local Authorities Bill [Lords].


London Local Authorities Bill [Lords]

In respect of this group of amendments, instead of simply restricting the provision so it applies to community support officers and not the accredited persons of the county, would it not be better to delete it entirely, because if it applied solely to community support officers, councils would be for ever tying up their time by ringing them up to ask them to come and carry out these functions, when the public want community support officers to be a visible police presence on the ground deterring proper crime?
