Proceeding contribution from Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Friday, 20 April 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill.
Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill
The hon. Member for Walsall, North (Mr. Winnick) is correct. Furthermore, part of the solution is in our own hands. If I am writing a letter about an allegation of crime, for example, I write it in a way that does not put anyone at risk. I do not put a reference or a name at the top of the letter, and I do other things to protect people. We can solve the problem, and clearly colleagues are doing so, because there have not been any complaints.
