Public Bill Committee: Crime (International Co-operation) Bill [Lords]: Clause 82 - Foreign surveillance operations (19 Jun 2003)

Caroline Flint: The hon. Gentleman's argument is that the provision covers undercover officers. It does not, and that was explained in the other place. The Schengen convention covers the basic bread-and-butter covert surveillance work of law enforcement officers. It does not deal with infiltration of organised gangs by undercover officers. That is why it is proposed in the Bill only to amend the...

Justice and Security Bill [HL] — Report (2nd Day) (Continued) (21 Nov 2012)

Baroness Kennedy of The Shaws: I am interested to hear the noble Lord, Lord Lester, the great human rights lawyer, defending secret processes of this kind. There is no doubt that applications will be made for closed material proceedings in those sorts of cases because the state will not want to divulge the circumstances in which locational intelligence was given. What we as members of the public would want to know would be...

Scottish Parliament written answers — Regulation of Investigatory Powers (Scotland) Act 2000: Regulation of Investigatory Powers (Scotland) Act 2000 (30 Jan 2003)

Jim Wallace: Today we issued final codes of practice on covert surveillance and covert human intelligence sources. These codes provide a framework within which public authorities covered by the legislation should exercise the powers and duties under the 2000 act.

We have considered the matter since it was raised at stage 2, but it is considered more...

Public Bill Committee: Protection of Freedoms Bill (22 Mar 2011)

Robert Buckland: ...to the area of your competence with regard to communications. As you have acknowledged, the proposed reforms would require judicial approval for not only that, but directed surveillance and covert human intelligence sources. I am going to put it simply: would it not be an anomaly if we left the area that you cover out of any proposed reforms to the other two areas in which there is...

Public Bill Committee: Telecommunications (Security) Bill: Clause 17 - Laying before Parliament (26 Jan 2021)

Kevan Jones: ...forever. I think he does not quite understand why the Government are not at least moving on this. The ISC’s remit is defined in the Justice and Security Act 2013. It sets out which Departments we cover, and the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport is not one of them. However, as I said last week, security is increasingly being covered by other Departments, and this Bill is a...

Terrorism Bill (13 Dec 2005)

Baroness Park of Monmouth: We are not worried about bugging, intercepts and all the rest of it—of course that can be done, and there is no danger if it is found out. It is an embarrassment; you have to find another way of covering the target—you have to start again. We are talking about the rare and almost irreplaceable human source who takes years to get into place. If he or she is lost, the replacement is...

Orders of the Day — Official Secrets Bill: Defence (15 Feb 1989)

Mr Rupert Allason: Certainly those disclosures could not have been made under clause 1.

And who knows—many of them may well he prompted to go to the European court in...
