Proceeding contribution from Lord Howard of Rising (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 20 January 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Digital Economy Bill [HL].


Digital Economy Bill [HL]

I hesitate even to get to my feet when caught between two people who know so much about what they are talking about as the noble Lord, Lord Maxton, and my noble friend Lord Lucas. However, these Benches strongly endorse retaining the privacy of people’s internet connections. It would be quite wrong for there to be untrammelled access, indeed, any access, to people’s internet connections unless it was extremely restricted.
