Proceeding contribution from Mark Fisher (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 July 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Criminal Evidence (Witness Anonymity) Bill.


Criminal Evidence (Witness Anonymity) Bill

The hon. Gentleman talks about evidence. Will he consider the singularity and crucial importance of the evidence to be relevant? Lord Bingham used the words ““sole”” and ““decisive””. Are those considerations not as crucial as all the other factors that we are talking about? Are not the nature and particularity of the evidence key if we are to get the balance right?
