Proceeding contribution from Antoinette Sandbach (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 20 October 2017. It occurred during Debate on bill on Assaults on Emergency Workers (Offences) Bill.


Assaults on Emergency Workers (Offences) Bill

I, too, support the Bill. Between April and September, Cheshire police recorded 277 assaults on police officers. That demonstrates vividly why the Bill is needed to strengthen the law in this area. This really is a problem locally.
