Proceeding contribution from Ian McCartney (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 January 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Bisher al-Rawi.


Bisher al-Rawi

The hon. Member for Kingston and Surbiton made it clear that, in a case in December 2006, the House of Lords granted permission for families to appeal. Mr. al-Rawi is no longer part of those proceedings, so we can discuss him but not the other cases. Their outcome may have a significant impact on decisions about such matters generally. The hon. Lady and my hon. Friend the Member for Sunderland, South (Mr. Mullin) have made their points. I have tried to answer them as fully as possible in the context of our discussion.
