Mr Joshua Reynolds

Liberal Democrat — Maidenhead

Speaking in the House of Commons on 20 April 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

The Minister is using words such as “may”. What she has outlined is incredibly important, but Lords amendment 342 obviously goes further than “may”—it insists that diversion orders will involve those necessary consultations. Will the Minister commit today to making sure that the police will have all these statutory duties, not just that they may have them, and that the consultation will be required?
