Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Yvette Cooper and Marie Tidball

Monday 21st October 2024 Commons Chamber

[Dr Marie Tidball (Penistone and Stocksbridge) (Lab)]

Noisy off-road bikes speed around neighbourhoods such as Chapeltown in my constituency, deliberately disturbing and intimidating residents. Will the Home Secretary commit to properly tackling off-road bikes by giving the police the right powers to crack down on this issue?

[Yvette Cooper]

My hon. Friend makes an important point, and I thank her for standing up for her community. We want to strengthen the law to give the police more powers to tackle the nightmare of dangerous off-road bikes.
