Proceeding contribution from Baroness Butler-Sloss (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 10 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Criminal Evidence (Witness Anonymity) Bill.


Criminal Evidence (Witness Anonymity) Bill

My Lords, the noble Baroness made the point that all three main political parties, under public pressure, have given in on a Bill that ought not to be going through. Is she aware that Liberty, which has nothing to do with political parties, does not object in principle to the Bill?
