Use Of The DNA Database
EDM number 1697 in 2005-06, proposed by Grant Shapps on 27/02/2006.
That this House expresses its concern about the retention of DNA data taken from children aged 10 to 18 years who have never been charged or cautioned with any offence; notes large regional differences in retention policy between various police forces; and believes that this imbalance is being further exacerbated by the Government's unwillingness to issue clear guidelines to chief constables about the removal of innocent children from the National Police DNA Database.
This motion has been signed by a total of 41 MPs.
