Proceeding contribution from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on Defendant Anonymity.

Defendant Anonymity

The Minister has correctly described the views of the Select Committee, of which the Prime Minister was a member, in 2003. I was not serving on the Committee at that stage. He has set out the Government's views very clearly today. Does this proposal exclude the possibility of the further research into false allegations that the Stern inquiry suggested? Is he dismissing the idea of further research altogether?
