Proceeding contribution from David Davis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism.
Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism
When I spoke to the head of counter-terrorism at the Department of Justice in the United States, he said that every organised crime prosecution and the vast majority—all bar one or two—of the terrorism prosecutions there require intercept evidence. He made the point that, if intercept strategy is designed to deliver evidence, a lot of evidence is obtained. That clearly does not happen currently in the UK.
