[Mr. Bill Olner in the Chair] — Human Trafficking Convention (3 Feb 2009)

Anthony Steen: ...child. The Council of Europe convention on action against trafficking in human beings was signed in 2006, but will come into force only this year. I am sorry that the Minister for Security, Counter-Terrorism, Crime and Policing is unable to attend this morning. I am told that that is not because of the snow, but because he is speaking for the Government in the Policing and Crime Public...

[Mr. Bill Olner in the Chair] — Human Trafficking Convention (3 Feb 2009)

Anthony Steen: ...that time. We have asked enough questions and had enough debates. I was really quite appalled that just before Christmas there was still no network. Despite all that the Minister for Security, Counter-Terrorism, Crime and Policing has said, there was no network that the police could tap into in order to help this girl, no funds to send her back and, much worse, no linkage to the...

[Mr. Bill Olner in the Chair] — Human Trafficking Convention (3 Feb 2009)

Anthony Steen: ...Europe, and it is now a question of implementation and of whether the new Under-Secretary of State for the Home Department will be as flexible and passionate as the Minister for Security, Counter-Terrorism, Crime and Policing has been. I do not know the answer to that, but we will keep an eagle eye on it. I am interested to see that the hon. Member for Hendon (Mr. Dismore) is present. He...

Olympics: Policing and Crime Bill (19 Jan 2009) has video

Anthony Steen: ...Britain—it must be a European initiative whereby all the countries join forces. Britain and Holland, among others, are way ahead on this. I pay great tribute to the Minister for Security, Counter-Terrorism, Crime and Policing, who is in his place, for taking that initiative forward, but I do not want him to go down the wrong track and end up making trafficking a far more difficult...

Opposition Day — [6th allotted day]: Human Trafficking (16 Jan 2008) has video

Anthony Steen: ...core business? The action plan said that it would become core business, but gave no indication of when that would happen, and nobody knew anything about it until the Minister for Security, Counter-Terrorism, Crime and Policing said the day before yesterday that it was now core police business. The significance is that if tackling human trafficking is core business, the police get money for...

Human Trafficking (13 Dec 2006)

Anthony Steen: I thank the Speaker for choosing this subject for debate. He has done Parliament a great service in many ways, and the debate could not be more timely. The war on terror is portrayed as enemy No. 1 in the west—the enemy cannot be seen, the enemy is within, society is threatened—but another war is going on, a more insidious one that is potentially more corrosive. I refer to the...

Mr Anthony Steen: ...her by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Saint Helena and disclosure that Miss de Freitas' father, holds a British passport, if the Minister of State (Citizenship, Immigration and Counter-terrorism) will now meet the hon. Member for Totnes to discuss the renewal of Miss Eulisa de Freitas' British passport for a further period.

Cycling (7 Jun 1995)

Mr Anthony Steen: ...and the least dangerous—one rarely hears of pedestrians being killed by cyclists. However, cyclists in cities are under such pressure that they cycle on pavements and through parks, and their terrorism is displayed by hostility to authority—cycling without lights at night and with no audible means of announcing their presence. There is a huge criminal underworld in cycle...

Orders of the Day — Local Government Finance (1 Feb 1995)

Mr Anthony Steen: I congratulate my right hon. Friend on his excellent speech so far. Does he share my disgust and fury at the antics of Liberal-controlled Devon county council? It is spreading terror among 300 teaching staff by telling them that they are all to be sacked because of the Government's rate settlement and it is making old people fear that they will be put out on the street in the cold. In...
