Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanson of Flint (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 15 November 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [Lords].

Terrorist Asset-Freezing etc. Bill [Lords]

For the sake of clarification, my right hon. Friend the Member for Morley and Outwood (Ed Balls) will look closely at those issues. As a Government, we obviously had in place the section 44 regime on control orders and CCTV, and we were introducing legislation. We will examine all those matters, but the balance between civil liberties and the protection of individuals, and securing action against terrorists must be right. That is the balance that I hope the review will seek.
