Counter-Terrorism Bill (Programme) (No. 2)

Just let me finish this point. I am not being unjustly or over-critical about new clause 4 or the amendments tabled by the hon. and learned Gentleman, but if they were passed in place of what I have offered, they may or may not sit with the changes made to the PACE code, they may or may not sit with new clauses 18 and 19, and I would ask the House to take my miserable offerings, albeit with some movement forward, because they are cohesive with the other two; then there might be a chance later to tidy up all the movement that I have made.
