Lynne Featherstone (Shadow Minister, Home Affairs; Hornsey and Wood Green, Liberal Democrat)
I put on the record my thanks to you, Mr. Pope, and to Mr. Conway. You have chaired our proceedings very smoothly, despite the ups and downs of our disagreements. I also thank the Clerks, Hansard, all Committee members, the Minister and the official Opposition spokesperson for their contributions to our informative debates. I have learned much about computer hacking, as has the Minister—it could be a case of the blind leading the blind, but I am pleased that in that one instance no stony ground was in evidence. I wish the Minister well on her promotion, whenever that is. [Interruption.] Well, we hear rumours. I have also learned a lot about the exact powers of CPSOs. I think that the Minister gave a masterclass in them.
I thank everyone on the Committee for making this a learning experience for me.
