Speaking in the House of Lords on 17 December 2025

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

My Amendment 355A does not create new offences, impose new burdens or require new IT systems; it simply requires the Secretary of State to issue statutory guidance so that police forces, local authorities, health bodies, education providers, immigration officials and voluntary sector partners all record honour-based abuse consistently and meaningfully. It closes the gap between identification and action. It ensures that when a professional sees the signs, the system sees them to.
