Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 December 2025

Debate

Crime and Policing Bill

Contribution

Amendments 346A and 498A ask the Government to register cycles and e-bikes in order that they display a registration mark, allowing both witnesses and technological monitoring to identify the rider of the cycle. This would, of course, have costs—costs that the user should pay, just as car drivers do. The costs of registration are relatively low, particularly considering that many e-bikes and top-range cycles cost many thousands of pounds, sometimes in excess of £10,000.
