Public Order Bill

Proceeding contribution from Yvette Cooper (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 May 2022. It occurred during Debate on bills on Public Order Bill.

The Minister talks about the extension of the powers of stop and search in the Bill; will he confirm that the Bill will make it possible for the police to stop and search people to try to find something that makes noise—such as a boombox, because that could contribute to a protest offence—and will also allow the stopping and searching of peaceful passers-by who walk through Parliament Square?
