Clause 35 - Interpretation
Anti-social Behaviour Bill
2:30 pm
Mr Vernon Coaker (Gedling, Labour)
It is helpful that my hon. Friend the Minister has clarified that the designated area or relevant locality can be quite large. That may overcome some of the problems that some of us thought might arise if a police officer had one set of powers in one street, but not a couple of hundred yards away. I hope that those who read the record of our deliberations—the command unit, the superintendents and so on—will take note of that.
