Proceeding contribution from Dominic Grieve (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 November 2007. It occurred during Debate on Convicting Rapists/Protecting Victims.


Convicting Rapists/Protecting Victims

Again, I quote from the Government's report, which states that if there is"““an appropriate and fair way forward, if that can be achieved, we will be prepared to legislate””." That is our position, too, but it is not what the Solicitor-General has told the House in the course of the debate. It is slightly regrettable that the Solicitor-General's views in the debate appear to be at variance with what the Government said.
