Proceeding contribution from Michael Mates (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 7 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on Intelligence and Security Committee.
Intelligence and Security Committee
It would be of help, particularly to anybody who is listening to the debate, if the hon. Gentleman got some of his facts right. He got the number wrong, and we are not positively vetted. I do not know why he makes these allegations as though he knew these things. If only he studied what we do, he could feel free to criticise us with the facts, not with his interpretation of them, which is so wrong.
