Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 19 October 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures Bill.


Terrorism Prevention and Investigation Measures Bill

The issue is that to this individual, being in prison is more acceptable than being in his place of residence under a control order, with the restrictions imposed by the system. I am sure that the noble Lord has heard, from people who had been under control orders that were quashed, the impact they had on them and their families. The interference with anything that any of us would recognise as a normal life has been literally intolerable. That is the point I make to the Committee. I beg to move.
