Speaking in the House of Lords on 7 January 2026

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

Finally, I cannot understand why Governments in the past have not called these people to account when they have had them in for meetings and they have said they are going to go away and do something about it. Why have they not? The answer is that nobody is asking them to do it and there is no financial incentive to do it either. That is what Governments are for, it seems to me. This is a real opportunity to do something about it. I support it 100% and I hope the Government will take action on it.
