Proceeding contribution from Meg Munn (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on Defendant Anonymity.
Defendant Anonymity
I am extremely puzzled by what the hon. Gentleman is saying. He has set out a very defensible position on why someone's name should not be in the public domain before they are charged, but why is that desirable only in relation to rape and not to any other offence? Surely the same should apply to anyone who felt that they had been wrongly accused of theft or burglary or any other offence.
