Last December, I had the chance to visit Guiseley School in Yorkshire, where I saw for myself the transformative effect that the new, modern buildings being provided will make to the entire school community. That was under the school rebuilding programme.

Victims and Prisoners Bill
The following is an extract from the Second Reading debate on the Victims and Prisoners Bill on 15 May 2023.
Alex Chalk Portrait The Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice (Alex Chalk)
- Hansard - - - Excerpts

On her specific point, what I think is exciting and heartening about the Bill is that it contains a duty on the Secretary of State and police and crime commissioners not just to promote awareness of the code —important though that is—but to promote compliance.

Lady can get some accountability.
