Proceeding contribution from Viscount Hailsham (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 22 November 2022. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Public Order Bill.


Public Order Bill

I am not, but what I am telling the Committee is that those who have a great many dealings with the public, particularly Members of the House of Commons, have passed by a very substantial majority the view that Clause 9 is necessary. That accords with my own personal experience, after 30 years or so in the House of Commons.
