Proceeding contribution from Simon Hughes (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 November 2008. It occurred during Debate on Data Protection and Freedom of Information.
Data Protection and Freedom of Information
The hon. Member for Aldridge-Brownhills (Mr. Shepherd) said that the Government should be proud of creating the structure. However, does the Secretary of State accept that long delays often obviate the benefit of the whole system? Producing a draft dossier about weapons of mass destruction five years later is not nearly as useful as producing it a year later.
