Proceeding contribution from Lord Campbell of Pittenweem (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Terrorism Bill.


Terrorism Bill

May I take the Home Secretary back to the issue of the Lord Advocate? From what he told the House a moment or two ago, it appears that the Lord Advocate’s view is that the period should be the same both north and south of the border, and that the authorities in Scotland should co-operate with the authorities in England. But it does not appear that the Lord Advocate endorsed the principle of 90 days. Is that correct?
