Proceeding contribution from Geoffrey Clifton-Brown (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on Intelligence and Security Committee.


Intelligence and Security Committee

I have been thinking carefully about what my right hon. and learned Friend said regarding a change in the procedure for electing his Committee. Would a constitutional issue arise if Parliament summoned either him, as Chairman of the Committee, or a member of his Committee to give information that they knew but felt they were not entitled to reveal? What would happen in such a case?
