Proceeding contribution from Jim Shannon (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 July 2010. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism.


Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism

Does the hon. Gentleman agree that we need 28 days for two reasons: for the ongoing verbal investigations and for the forensic part of the evidence? It is not like the ““CSI”” programmes on TV. A person is not convicted in 60 minutes—28 days are needed to do that. It helps to remove the more volatile members of the community and to ensure that innocent people are protected.
