New bill introduced to make spiking a criminal offence

The Conservative MP Richard Graham today proposed a 10 minute rule bill which, if passed, would make it illegal to administer drugs, alcohol or any other substance to a person without their consent.

Mr Graham said: “This House is here to reflect the concerns of our constituents, recognise  that spiking exists and should be defined and the law should make all its criminal aspects clear in one place. It is quite simply, time to stop spiking now”.
