Policing and Crime Bill

My Lords, as regards the training of police officers, we are talking about very young people. Of course, police officers encounter them, but I would appreciate receiving a letter from the Minister advising me and other Members of the House what support officers are given to engage sensitively with 11 and 12 year-olds. Is there a lead officer within each team, for example? I envisage a situation where an 11 year-old has had a bit to drink. They might be given a gentle talking-to and be encouraged to move away or the situation could become exacerbated and an argument could develop between an authority figure and the young person resulting in the young person being put into a police van and spending a night in a cell. That is not a good experience for a young person and we want to avoid that if at all possible. It would be helpful to receive advice on that.
