Proceeding contribution from Lord Myners (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 27 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [HL].


Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [HL]

Before the Minister concludes—and noting the arrival of the Chief Whip to provide necessary protection in keeping him within his time limit—I should say that he has given us an excellent summing up of the debate. It has been one of the best that I have heard, and I congratulate him on it. He very kindly referred to my question on legal aid. In fact, I asked him to assure us that there will be no cuts in the legal aid budget and the legal facilities available through legal aid to those who find themselves the target of this legislation, because they are in such a delicate and exposed position that they have every right to be able to secure the very best legal protection.
