Proceeding contribution from Dominic Grieve (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Counter-Terrorism Bill.
Counter-Terrorism Bill
Will the Home Secretary answer the point that was made so properly by the hon. and learned Member for Medway (Mr. Marshall-Andrews) that the use of the term ““grave and exceptional terrorist threat”” is defined in a way that means that it is nothing of the kind? It is not akin to the definition in the Civil Contingencies Act 2004, or an emergency; it could be any terrorist matter brought to the notice of the Home Secretary.
