Criminal Justice Bill

Proceeding contribution from Stella Creasy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 November 2023. It occurred during Debate on bills on Criminal Justice Bill.

What the hon. Lady is saying is incredibly powerful, and I wholeheartedly agree with her. Does she agree that one challenge we face is that we have a homelessness crisis? In my local area, our brilliant night shelters are already full, and the people working with the homeless would find it harder to help them if they had a criminal record. It would be counter-productive to the very good work we all know needs to happen to prevent homelessness so that it is one night only.
