Proceeding contribution from Andrew Dismore (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 February 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Human Rights.


Human Rights

The hon. Gentleman is entirely right, but there are basic fundamental freedoms enshrined in the Act. I hope that none of the examples that I have given today are ones that he would have disagreed with had he been asked to make that decision himself. I hope that the Government will continue to work to support the Human Rights Act in an active campaigning way, to ensure that the Act is properly enshrined in our society.
