UK-US Extradition Treaty

I am grateful to the Solicitor-General for his comments, but I think that most right hon. and hon. Members found an opportunity to discuss the general principles. Let me sound one serious note of criticism in respect of the Solicitor-General’s remarks. I found his reference to ““the Enron three”” abhorrent. It was suggested that that is common usage, but in fact it is common usage only among Ministers. It is clearly pejorative and it is not an expression that the Solicitor-General—a Law Officer—should have used in this Chamber.
