Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 18 October 2007. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

My hon. Friend makes an important point. We need to ensure that if justice is not done in a way that accords with our public policy commitment, we consider what action to take, and take it swiftly, so that people do not lose out. The problem with such matters is that people's lives are the issue. This is not just a technical matter that can be discussed in the fullness of time. People want this considered promptly, and I know that his all-party group will give the matter full consideration and offer the Government its views, which I am sure will be welcomed.
