Proceeding contribution from George Howarth (Labour) 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

I am grateful to my right hon. Friend for reluctantly giving way. Does he recall that when those debates were going on, the claim was never that these powers would be used frequently, but that they might be necessary in very exceptional circumstances?
