Proceeding contribution from Lord Bassam of Brighton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 14 March 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Serious Crime Bill [HL].


Serious Crime Bill [HL]

I am happy to have further discussion outside the Chamber so that we can explore the issues in the intricate way the noble Lord seeks. I am sure that in the end we can satisfy him about what we are trying to achieve in putting together information in an orderly fashion and making sure that it is open and usable, certainly for law enforcement agencies. The issue of individual cases and named persons is separate, and we will have to treat it with great care. The noble Lord has made an important case and I have listened carefully to what the most reverend Primate and others have said. I think we can go some way towards satisfying the noble Lord.
