Proceeding contribution from Damian Collins (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 December 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Firearms Residue Testing (Criminal Cases).


Firearms Residue Testing (Criminal Cases)

My concern is that there was knowledge of the limitations of the test, yet evidence was presented from it in a court that suggested that there was no ambiguity at all and that it could be safely relied upon, whereas academic papers that were in the possession of the Metropolitan police cast doubt on that.
