Proceeding contribution from Baroness Neville-Jones (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 8 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Counter-Terrorism Bill.


Counter-Terrorism Bill

My Lords, we appear to agree on the principle of not doing the terrorists’ work, but the sentiment in this House is two to one against the Government’s expressed position on 42 days. I suggest to the Minister that it might be right and sensible at this stage to withdraw the proposal, otherwise I fear that we will waste a good deal of the House’s time before the Government are defeated in a vote.
