Public Order Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Sharpe of Epsom (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 28 March 2023. It occurred during Debate on bills on Public Order Bill.

I apologise if I misunderstood my noble friend. I was basing my answer on the fact that a report was published yesterday by the Children’s Commissioner that specifically related to young people and strip search. If I misunderstood, I apologise. With regard to stop and search, I would

argue that all the criteria for establishing the cordon and the area and so on would mean that the circumstances described by my noble friend would be highly unlikely.

With regard to the Casey report, as I have already said, both the Government and the Met police are taking it very seriously. These are rules that we expect to be followed.
