Clause 3 - Police authorities as best value authorities
Police and Justice Bill
12:45 pm
Martin Horwood (Shadow Minister, Home Affairs; Cheltenham, Liberal Democrat)
I am flattered by the Minister’s compliments on my drafting, although I cannot claim personal responsibility for all of it. However, I shall relay those comments to the researchers who were involved in it. I am somewhat reassured by what the right hon. Lady said and I see the value of an Audit Commission role in inspecting police authorities. I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
