Terrorism Bill

This is a very important point that I have only just understood. I get the impression from the Minister, who always tries to help the House, that the ball whizzed past her off stump and she did not know where it was going. She was not quite sure what the answer was. Nobody blames her for not being sure, but would it not be better to have a tiny think about this and come back later rather than giving an answer on the hoof? From this side, one could see the Minister’s face and she was genuinely struggling. I say this in all sympathy.
