Proceeding contribution from David Davis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 1 March 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism.


Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism

May I ask my hon. Friend to look again at the public dimension of the intercept review? What was said was that a Finnish case had introduced a new element to the matter that made things very difficult. I have looked at that case, in which the European Court of Human Rights intervened, entirely properly, because a grotesque injustice was being administered by the Finnish authorities—something that I hope that we would not do. As a result, the arguments against intercept that were marshalled publicly were totally wrong.
