Clause 7 - The commission of the peace for England and Wales
Courts Bill [Lords]
9:30 am
Mr Nick Hawkins (Surrey Heath, Conservative)
We shall hear whether the Minister has anything to add to the explanation that I have given, but I thought that I had just explained my understanding of why the commission of the peace has that name: it was intended to ensure peaceful communities. We Conservative Members are very much in favour of keeping historic titles, and we are
delighted that on this occasion the Government have chosen to do so.
