HL Deb 03 November 2003 vol 654 c75WA
Lord Avebury

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will collect information from the courts and adjudicators about mothers who are breastfeeding and who are refused bail. [HL5040]

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department for Constitutional Affairs (Lord Filkin)

The only information that my department collects about bail decisions is for those made in the Crown Court on whether bail was granted or refused. There are no plans to collect the data suggested.
