Proceeding contribution from Baroness Blackwood of North Oxford (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Protection of Freedoms Bill.
Protection of Freedoms Bill
I welcome the amendment, but does the Secretary of State agree that the public's severe lack of confidence in the criminal justice system's ability to deal with stalking is a major problem, and that legislation, while welcome, is not the whole solution? We also need training for officers; that is the only way that we will improve officers' reactions when victims of stalking come forward, increase public confidence, and increase earlier reporting of stalking.
