Proceeding contribution from William Cash (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 February 2007. It occurred during Legislative debate on Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism.


Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism

There was a full-ranging debate on Monday on the Human Rights Act. The question of the publication of photographs came up. It is a matter of grave concern that the application of universal principles has a precautionary and inhibiting effect on the police, in that they often simply do not know what to do. It is in those circumstances that we get into the shambles that the Minister has just been talking about.
