Proceeding contribution from Earl Attlee (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 24 July 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Armed Forces Bill.


Armed Forces Bill

The Minister may prefer to write to me on this query. It seems to me that there is an offence of discussing the possibility of mutiny. I would never be prepared to discuss resisting or overthrowing authority. I would not want to get anywhere close to doing that, but it does not seem to be an offence to discuss the possibility of resisting or overthrowing authority. If the Minister could write to me on that point, I should be grateful.
