Proceeding contribution from Keith Vaz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 18 January 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Detainee Inquiry.


Detainee Inquiry

The Justice Secretary clearly has the support of both sides of the House in the decision he has taken today. Could he clarify whether this was his decision or whether Sir Peter came to him and asked to be relinquished of his responsibilities in view of the fresh investigations? I know that the Justice Secretary cannot give us a timetable, but does he envisage this lasting for months or years?
