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

Sometimes there are difficulties. Someone wrote to me the other day saying, ““You have written to the police and the council saying that I’ve been guilty of being a nuisance neighbour?. I replied that I had not done that, but had in fact written to the police and the council saying that an allegation had been made and asking for the facts. If we tell people the facts, they normally understand; these are not problems that cannot be dealt with by intelligent communication, which most MPs are well able to undertake.
