Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 December 2025

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

I make one specific observation on proposed new subsection (3E), which states that the person’s workplace includes “hybrid work environments”, meaning that the duty could apply in a person’s home. I question whether an employer should be held responsible for violence that an employee experiences in their home. It does not seem to be reasonable.
