Proceeding contribution from Lord Maginnis of Drumglass (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 27 February 2007. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Policing (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Northern Ireland) Order 2007.


Policing (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Northern Ireland) Order 2007

I apologise for interrupting the noble Baroness. Can she define the word ““collusion”” for me? There is no such word in law. If it is something other than collusion, why are we not using those words? If it is conspiracy or something of that nature, why are there no charges? The Police Ombudsman can hide behind the word ““collusion””, but Government cannot because the word does not exist in law.
