Proceeding contribution from Lord West of Spithead (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 9 July 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Newspapers: Surveillance Methods.


Newspapers: Surveillance Methods

My Lords, as I say, I am not up to speed on that. I shall look at it and get back to the noble Baroness because I am not aware that we are intending to move forward rapidly on that. When we have considered the impact of this matter we may change our view on that, but first we need to determine exactly what that impact is. No doubt if anything arises from further investigations of Mr Coulson by the Met, the DPP and the House of Commons Culture, Media and Sport Committee, something will be done. Other than saying that, I do not wish to comment on that further. I hope that I have answered the questions that were asked.
