Speaking in the House of Lords on 20 January 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

As I have already said, I advise the Government to look at the presumption that crime will be recorded even if the police do not believe that a crime has been committed. This is one of the causes of the problem we are discussing. Frankly, if it is not resolved, I guarantee that we will be back looking at this in a few years’ time. For that reason, I support the amendment.
