My Lords, I think it was the late, lamented Linda Smith who said that you can’t take ASBOs away from people—it’s the only qualification some of them are going to get. I can see that the DBO comes into that category. It is poor in principle that the Government confuse...

My Lords, this Bill is of such moment to the Government that it began a year ago last summer in another place and is now staggering towards its conclusion. We support measures to give the courts more effective powers to ban individuals from licensed premises if that will materially improve...

My Lords, I am most grateful to the noble Baroness for her very constructive introduction to business this afternoon. Her use of the word ““staggering”” towards a conclusion on this Bill was probably an inadvertent pun relating to the matters in hand. We like to think that we are moving...

My Lords, perhaps I should talk to the noble Lord, Lord Bach, about that, or a drinking banning order—but no! The noble Lord, Lord Thomas of Gresford, is right that he will not be able to persuade me, and for good reason. Noble Lords will have heard similar arguments put...

My Lords, this is another issue on which we will not agree. The policy of my party is to protect young people, and that is what has led to the next amendments that I will move. I am sorry that there is a breach of that principle by these clauses....

My Lords, if a court has to consider, some guidance ought to be given about how it should consider. I think that this is necessary. I would have supported the first amendments but I was engaged by the noble Lord, Lord Bach, outside the Chamber.
