Proceeding contribution from Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 6 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Protection of Freedoms Bill.
Protection of Freedoms Bill
My Lords, the Human Rights Act is an extremely important Act which provides the safeguards that the noble Lord suggests. However, I think that when some of these powers are being exercised, they are not always exercised according to the standards that should be imposed by the Human Rights Act. I also know that the very fact that there are these countless powers gives a lot of people concern that their very rights are being infringed. We have to look at all these things in the round.
