Proceeding contribution from Lord Reid of Cardowan (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 June 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Counter-Terrorism.


Counter-Terrorism

I think that I agree with every point that my hon. Friend raises. I merely point out at this stage that we will not put forward for consultation the stop-and-question powers to which she referred because we have not finally resolved that inside Government. Perhaps it gives her a degree of reassurance that that will take place before any consultation outside. I that hope everyone will get involved in the consultation outside, including through their representatives in the House. There are hundreds of people in the House who represent every section of British society, and I hope that they will continue to make their views known, as my hon. Friend has done.
