Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 February 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Prisons: Woodhill.


Prisons: Woodhill

My Lords, that is the point raised by the noble Lord, Lord Thomas of Gresford. The Statement makes it clear—I shall say it again—that any question of the interception or surveillance of the conversations of any person with their legal adviser is subject to explicit safeguards, which generally prohibit such interception or surveillance. I shall outline the safeguards and put a copy in the Library so that all noble Lords may consider them.
