Clause 70
Counter-Terrorism Bill
9:45 am
Douglas Hogg (Sleaford and North Hykeham, Conservative)
My recent reading of the Terrorism Act 2000 made it plain that the measure is subject to an overriding provision that the offences were not committed by lawyers where the information was received in their confidential communication with their clients. It would be helpful if the Minister were to restate that, because he failed to mention that in his general statement of policy.
