Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ludford (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 18 July 2006. It occurred during Question for short debate on Extraordinary Rendition.
Extraordinary Rendition
My Lords, I think the Minister said earlier that there was no evidence of any involvement at all by British intelligence agencies. Is it not the case that during the High Court case in March, concerning Bisher al-Rawi and Jamil al-Banna, the High Court established that the Government passed on to the United States authorities, either directly or at least indirectly, information that led to the illegal seizure and rendition to Guantanamo Bay of those two men and that on that basis the Government, while not accepting any legal requirement, accepted to make representations certainly on behalf of Bisher al-Rawi?
