Policing and Crime Bill (Programme) (No. 2)
Commission for the Compact
4:01 pm
John Gummer (Suffolk Coastal, Conservative)
Does the hon. Gentleman agree that the provision of more time for consideration would also be better for the Government? Why do they not understand that it would produce a better Bill, and they would have less egg on their face much less often, if we were able to debate these matters? They would not subsequently find out about problems out in the world, where they look very bad indeed.
