Proceeding contribution from Robert Marshall-Andrews (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
My hon. Friend may well be coming to this point, but will he deal with what appears to be an immediate and obvious problem? How will the evidence be tested? Will there be a trial-within-a-trial—a voir dire—and, if so, how will that take place? Who will preside over it? Will it be in chambers or open court? I do not want to go on, but is that the sort of trial that he envisages?
