Proceeding contribution from Lord Knight of Weymouth (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 6 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Education Bill.


Education Bill

The noble Lord makes a really powerful point. I am sure that this legislation was drafted before super-injunctions and before the Twitter activity around certain footballers whose names were disclosed and the mischievous and false rumours spread on Twitter about other celebrities and what they may or may not have been doing. Is that not all the more reason for the Government to look at this again?
