UK: House of Commons Research Library: Briefing on Police and Justice Bill

01 March 2006

Support our work: become a Friend of Statewatch from as little as £1/€1 per month.

The Bill includes powers to collect PNR (Passenger Name Records) on everyone on domestic flights and ferries (powers to get similar personal data on those flying in and out of the country are included in the Immigration Bill). Plus allowing "community support officers" to take part in "truancy sweeps", power to court to remand in custody those breaching ASBOs until hearing, and police force mergers.
