Proceeding contribution from Baroness Scotland of Asthal (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 15 July 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Criminal Evidence (Witness Anonymity) Bill.


Criminal Evidence (Witness Anonymity) Bill

I take very much to heart my noble friend’s stricture. We are discussing Amendment No. 2A, on which, I would respectfully say, we are all in agreement. But we have trespassed way into special counsel and the groups have merged. I apologise wholeheartedly for having been seduced into that error by the noble Lords, Lord Kingsland, Lord Lester and Lord Thomas of Gresford. I should have been far more wary.
