Speaking in the House of Lords on 27 January 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

The police, as with many other public bodies, should be collecting that data but it must be driven by officers asking for self-declaration by the individual concerned. Most of us are used to this. I went to a new clinic at a hospital the other day and was asked to do it, so I am quite used to it and I think I am not alone on that.
