Proceeding contribution from Paul Goggins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 19 October 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Justice and Security Green Paper.


Justice and Security Green Paper

I am very grateful, Mr Speaker, and I, too, welcome the Green Paper. It is perfectly clear that the balance on disclosure has tipped too far in sensitive cases, and that results in Ministers being constrained in their ability to fulfil their ultimate obligation, which is to protect the public. Given the complexity of the situation, may I ask specifically what plans the Secretary of State has to consult the judiciary?
