2025-03-19 Armed Forces Commissioner Bill
My Lords, I cannot call Amendment 12 as Amendment 11 was not moved.
2025-03-19 Armed Forces Commissioner Bill
My Lords, this is an interesting section for me, as the Victims’ Commissioner, because it feels very much like déjà vu. Governments like to do the window dressing but they do not put in the greater detail that will put the pillars into this role. I wa
2025-03-11 Football Governance Bill [HL]
This is where it could go to VAR. Amendment 18
2025-03-05 Armed Forces Commissioner Bill
My Lords, I am pleased to contribute to the Second Reading of the Armed Forces Commissioner Bill. Like many people, I do not have a military background, but I wish to declare that I am an honorary colonel of the Merseyside Army Cadets. I am really proud
2025-01-07 Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Bill
My Lords, it has been so heartwarming to listen to every speaker. Every bit of wording has been correct and it is so heartwarming to hear that, after so long, we are going to have something set in stone to protect future lives. The events of the Manch
2024-12-12 Domestic Abuse: Victims and Survivors
My Lords, I thank my noble friend Lady Chisholm for this debate. It saddens me, though, that we only have three minutes to talk about it. If it was to do with EU law, we would have three days. I think that shows you. Are we really serious about tackling
2024-12-10 Home Detention Curfew and Requisite and Minimum Custodial Periods (Amendment) Order 2024
My Lords, both as Victims’ Commissioner and a victim going through the criminal justice system, I was horrified to read the NAO report published week which assessed government plans to expand the prison population. The report told us that on current fore
2024-11-20 Product Regulation and Metrology Bill [HL]
My Lords, I must inform the Committee that, if Amendment 4 is agreed to, I cannot call Amendment 6 by reason of pre-emption.
2024-07-24 King’s Speech
My Lords, I welcome the noble Lords, Lord Hanson and Lord Timpson. It was a great maiden speech from the noble Lord, Lord Timpson. The noble Lord, Lord Hanson, has yet to make his maiden speech but, coming from the other place, I know he will be a true p
2024-05-23 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I thank my noble and learned friend Lord Bellamy, the ministerial team and everybody across the Chamber from different teams. It has been heartwarming to see everybody trying to get the best result for victims and their families and make sure t
2024-05-01 Health and Disability Reform
I want to ask the Minister about applying for PIP. Similar to my noble friend Lady Browning’s case, my son-in-law has applied. He has MS and has been advised by his consultant. He has waited six years for a diagnosis and is 32 years of age. His applicati
2024-04-23 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I am using IT in this speech—trying to get trendy, as my daughters tell me to do. My apologies, as I have sausage fingers with arthritis. First, I would like to speak to Amendment 85. In April 2018, I published a report highlighting the disc
2024-04-23 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I will speak to Amendment 57. Why would I not, since it is a duty to collaborate and co-operate? We like a lot of “C”s in this Bill. I also support what has been said about transcripts. It is so important to have the sentencing remarks, so that
2024-04-16 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I am grateful to my noble and learned friend the Minister for all the conversations and meetings we have had with his officials and other Peers. In Committee I expressed my concerns about provisions in the Bill, so I am speaking in support of A
2024-04-16 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, apologies; I have a migraine and I think the medication has messed with my head. I meant to talk also to Amendments 3 and 6. Although, again, I appreciate all the informal meetings and the meetings with my office, I still wish to make a poin
2024-04-16 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I thank all noble colleagues and friends around the House who have spoken about such an important area: victims murdered abroad. I also thank my noble and learned friend the Minister and his officials for meeting me and other Peers, as was high
2024-02-26 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, this amendment is important. As someone who knows first-hand what it is like to gather information and then find out that the Home Office wants to gather information about red flags, I have to say it is amazing that all that information is shar
2024-02-26 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I support these amendments, and I am so glad that the noble Baroness, Lady Royall, is back where she belongs, speaking on a topic that she is so passionate about. Laura Richards has been mentioned by many speakers, and social media has a goo
2024-02-13 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I have been happy to sit and listen as we went through the rest of the Bill, but I totally support these amendments. To not have to listen to the victim’s voice beggars belief. The whole point of having an advocate for a major incident is so th
2024-02-07 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I support this amendment. The Manchester Arena terror atrocity in 2017 chilled every parent in the country. When you watch your children head off to a concert or a party, excited and happy, you are never at ease until they are safely home. I ha
2024-02-07 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I have noticed the time as well, and the points that I was going to raise have already been made. I will talk about how it feels, as a victim in a murder trial, to hear, after sentencing, all these professionals say that the offenders, who have
2024-02-07 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I support the probing amendment from the noble Baroness, Lady Brinton, which is an opportunity for the Government to look at court order compensation. The compensation for victims when they leave a court is not the amount they receive and it
2024-02-07 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I support all these amendments. As Victims’ Commissioner, I have been in contact with many victims who have experienced criminal offending and are going through the family courts. I have raised concerns about how, as I hear from victims of dome
2024-02-07 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, I am grateful for that response to the noble Baroness, Lady Finlay. I did a report on registered intermediaries. Again, I mean no disrespect to the Minister, because this is a very passionate area that we are speaking about, but we have a short
2024-02-07 Victims and Prisoners Bill
My Lords, it is exactly as the noble Lord, Lord Marks, said. He put it so succinctly, more so than I did—I would go on, because I am so passionate about this. I have admiration for the noble Earl. What worries me in all this legislation is that it is
