The main points from prime minister's questions on Wednesday, 30 January, from 1200 GMT:
The session began with Prime Minister Gordon Brown listing the additional responsibilities of the new Secretary of State for Wales, in answer to a question from a Tory MP who asked why Wales got a full time member of cabinet, when Scotland did not.
The session began with Prime Minister Gordon Brown listing the additional responsibilities of the new Secretary of State for Wales, in answer to a question from a Tory MP who asked why Wales got a full time member of cabinet, when Scotland did not.
Tory leader David Cameron asked if the prime minister would adopt the three year campaign from the Conservatives to scrap the form which police officers have to fill in when they carry out a stop and search.
Mr Brown said the government was "taking action" to reduce police bureaucracy and would publish the final conclusions of the Flanagan Report on the issue next week.
Mr Cameron pressed Mr Brown to say if he would stop "preachers of hate" from coming into the UK.
Mr Brown said an announcement will be made on this "very soon", adding: "We don't expel people in this country other than through proper judicial processes."
Mr Cameron said Mr Brown was incapable of answering a question or taking a decision. He added: "Shouldn't you just accept that people aren't safe under Labour?"
Mr Brown said neighbourhood policing, plus more police, community support officers and more people being brought to justice was keeping people safe and had brought crime down.
