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
The hon. Lady asks a rather pertinent question. I do not think that there is any material to be placed in the Library, because the security services never requested the extension. The extension was dreamed up by her hon. Friends on the Government Front Bench; that is the reality. They did so at a time when there was consensus on 28 days, and they departed from that consensus for reasons that remain a complete mystery.
