Baroness Chakrabarti (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 16 December 2025

Debate

Victims and Courts Bill

Contribution

My noble friend is very gracious, but I fear there is a new trend which is not the practice of your Lordships’ House: to have an extended back and forth at Second Reading. I know this may be the practice of another place not far from here but, with all due respect to noble Lords and to my noble friend with her good humour and fortitude, I am not sure that that is something that we should innovate this evening.
