Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill (Lab)
I am grateful to my noble friend, who did indeed ask that question about drink-driving. We will consider these matters further. My noble friend dealing with the Crime and Policing Bill has a number of amendments to deal with. I am sure that we will deal with them then.
Baroness Butler-Sloss (CB)
Can anything be done about cycling on pavements?
Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill (Lab)
Yes. It is a really bad thing to do. I will write to the noble and learned Baroness rather than riffle through these papers. Increasing the ability of local authorities to deal with what look like minor transgressions of behaviour but actually badly affect vulnerable people and their confidence and ability to move around. This Government are committed to doing something about it. I will write to her.
