Proceeding contribution from Peter Bone (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Terrorism Bill.


Terrorism Bill

During the long debates that we have had, the Home Secretary referred a number of times to a small number of people who will be detained for more than 14 days without charge. Outside this place, ““a small number”” has been interpreted as being fewer than five, fewer than 12 or fewer than 20. Can he give us an idea what he has in mind as a small number? If it is greatly different in practice, what will the Government do about that?
