Proceeding contribution from David Howarth (Liberal Democrat) 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

That is precisely right. Our new clause is explicit, but my impression is that the amendments and new clauses proposed by other Members have the same intention—that the purpose is to assist the court in coming to the decision that it is given by the statute to make.
