Proceeding contribution from Stuart Bell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 May 2011. It occurred during Urgent question on Injunctions.


Injunctions

We welcome the Attorney-General's clarification, but is it not a fact that if we continue to use parliamentary privilege to usurp court orders, we are not only bringing Parliament and the courts into conflict, but we are interfering with the separation of powers. Is that desirable or is it not?
