Strong hint from Amber Rudd that she will amend police guidance (Code C of PACE) to ensure female suspects have access to sanitary products in custody. She tells MPs she wants to confirm that current guidance is "inadequate", but thinks it is.
Replying to @DannyShawBBC
It was Independent custody visitors who raised this as an issue. Home Secretary is responding. If there isn’t a problem, amending PACE will not be an issue as police doing this already. If there is a problem in some places, it will be helpful. @AmberRuddHR is right on this one.
