Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation (16 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Will the hon. Lady give way?

Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation (16 Mar 2016)

James Berry: There is much in the Budget that I welcome. Before coming to my main point, I will mention four particular things: measures to reduce childhood obesity; money to tackle homelessness that shames our city and our country; a freezing of fuel duty; and the cutting of taxes for small businesses and corporation tax. I remind Opposition Members, who sometimes make crass political points about...

Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation (16 Mar 2016)

James Berry: My hon. Friend is right. This is not just a London project. I heard the cat-calls from Members on the Opposition Benches saying, “What about this or that part of the country?” This is not just a London-centric project. It helps people across the south of England. Anyone coming into Waterloo will see a huge change, with a huge amount of space freed up because trains will be diverted to...

Budget Resolutions and Economic Situation (16 Mar 2016)

James Berry: The place my family come from is not far from Bishop Auckland. I hope they take the opportunity, which will be much improved with HS2 and Crossrail 2. The project is not due to open until 2030. That may seem like a long way off, but we will never get there unless we do this work now. Indeed, for many of my constituents Crossrail 2 cannot come too soon. This morning, if I had not got on the...

Investigatory Powers Bill (15 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Does my hon. Friend agree with the evidence we heard from the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children in Committee showing that the Bill is important for tackling online child abuse and for tracking children who have gone missing and are at serious risk of harm?

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of Witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Q My question is to Chief Constable Marshall. I should declare that I have worked as a barrister, and I lecture at the College of Policing—it is good to have experience. The College of Policing led on the barred list. That responsibility was given to you. Could you tell the Committee how it has worked in the time that you have had ownership of that portfolio and how the changes in the Bill...

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of Witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Q Thank you. This is my second and final question. You run the senior command course, on which I have had the pleasure of lecturing. That is the course senior officers go on in order to qualify to be a chief officer, effectively. Could that course be opened to senior fire officers to prepare them for appointment to chief constable posts in a single-employer model?

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Q I should declare that I have been instructed in cases involving both of the witnesses in their previous roles as chief constables. Can I ask first about the Dhar case? There was a lot of public scrutiny of that case, but there were a number of complicating factors behind it, including the availability of passports. Generally speaking, as well as increasing the legal powers to enforce...

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Q Since that case, is there now routine consideration of flight risk for CT cases, to ensure that all action is taken to mitigate the risk of flight?

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Q Coming to the more general point about the limitation on the length of time you can hold someone on pre-charge bail, Chief Constable Thornton, you said that some people would not be released. What else would the police do to respond to that limitation on your powers in cases where at the moment you are taking longer to investigate?

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Q Finally, are there any particular categories of offending in respect of which you are especially concerned about having a restriction on the time you can bail someone for pre-charge?

James Berry: Yes, that is the point: under a disciplinary regime.

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of Witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of Witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

James Berry: Special constables are under the disciplinary regime.

Public Bill Committee: Policing and Crime Bill: Examination of Witnesses (15 Mar 2016)

Excluding these words

We also support a bunch of boolean search modifiers, like AND and NEAR, for precise searching.
