Nick Herbert (Shadow Minister (Police Reform), Home Affairs; Arundel & South Downs, Conservative)
I am grateful to the Minister for that explanation. I wondered whether there were proposals to include new bodies within the crime and disorder reduction partnerships, but it appears that there are not and it is just a matter of taking a power in case it may be needed in the future. I accept the Minister’s point. If new bodies can be brought in it is sensible to do so by order rather than by primary legislation. I beg to ask leave to withdraw the amendment.
