Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 July 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
Those are issues of grave concern. It is absolutely fundamental that once we are elected to this House, we are able to get on with our job without let or hindrance. Certainly, if unlawful interception of telephone communications, voicemails and texts had taken place, it would be contempt of Parliament and a breach of parliamentary privilege. Those matters are of grave concern, and I will certainly consider what issues have arisen and what would be the appropriate action for me to propose to the House.
