Proceeding contribution from Dominic Grieve (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 1 April 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Counter-Terrorism Bill.


Counter-Terrorism Bill

I am referring principally to respectable countries. Will the Home Secretary also accept that whatever else she may say about the French system, it is a post-charge form of detention? Secondly, I rather hoped that she might acknowledge in the House that our common-law system has greater safeguards for the individual, and that she would wish to maintain them rather than move to a continental model.
