Rural Crime

Lord McLoughlin Excerpts

Tuesday 11th July 2023 Lords Chamber

[Lord McLoughlin (Con)]

My Lords, will the Government encourage the very innovative ideas to combat rural crime already being pursued by some police and crime commissioners to be taken up in other areas of the country that are not at the moment following the example of the commissioners who are doing an excellent job on this front?

[Lord Davies of Gower (Con)]

I agree; it may be that police and crime commissioners should share their views on how to deal with these things during the different kinds of get-togethers that they have. That is something that I completely agree with.
