Counter-Terrorism Bill

Sir Ian Blair: We are uncomfortable with the fact that the debate is around a specific figure, whether it be 90 or 42. We have always asked for the maximum time under the strictest judicial supervision that Parliament is prepared to grant. You know as well as I do the history of this figure and I am not going to go back into it. We have reached a point where we were pushing at 28 days. The Government have suggested 42 days. That is a matter for Parliament. We will abide by its decision.
