Home Affairs and Justice

Proceeding contribution from Andy Slaughter (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 December 2008. It occurred during Queen's speech debate on Debate on the Address.
I am grateful for the Home Secretary's intention to assert more control over lap-dancing clubs, the expansion of which into residential areas is of great concern to many communities, including mine. [Interruption.] I would like to speak without being heckled by the Opposition Front-Bench team. When will my right hon. Friend provide more details of what the legislation will say? In particular, is she going to use the definition of ““sex encounter establishments”” and what will happen to existing licences and those that may be granted during the transitional phases before the policing and crime Bill becomes law?
