Baroness Finlay of Llandaff (CB)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 2 February 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

My Lords, I am not moving this amendment, but I feel I owe it to the House to explain why I took my name off it when it had been drafted. I was contacted by the Chief Minister of the Isle of Man, who felt that it was premature: they had not been consulted, their Bill has not received Royal Assent, and they felt that a considerable number of parliamentary colleagues would be greatly concerned if this was to pass as an amendment without formal consultation. I feel I should simply place that on the record, but I do not wish to move this amendment, so I realise that this is slightly irregular.
