Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill (Programme) (No. 2)

Proceeding contribution from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 30 March 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Police Reform and Social Responsibility Bill.

I am following my hon. Friend's arguments carefully. The new clause would put a lot of responsibility on HMIC. Does he feel that it has the resources to deal with what he would have it deal with? As we know, it published a report only yesterday on police numbers. Does he not think that if we give it this responsibility, it would need the resources to deal with it?
