Proceeding contribution from David Davis (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 July 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Treatment of Detainees.


Treatment of Detainees

I commend the Prime Minister on coming to such a fast decision on this important issue and I support what he had to say today, including his commendation of our intelligence services. Will he reinforce what I think underpinned much of what he said, which was that this tribunal will be able to follow the evidence wherever it goes; that it will not only have access to people and papers, but to in camera court records that relate to this; and, when it comes to conclusions, it will be the decision of the tribunal, and the tribunal alone, as to what is published in the national interest?
