Prevention and Suppression of Terrorism

I gather than the hon. Gentleman is arguing for 14 days. As he will recall, when we debated the 42-day detention period, we discussed the Heathrow plot in excruciating detail, and we found that in one serious case someone had been detained for between 14 and 21 days. I think that the hon. Gentleman's argument would be more compelling if he were supporting 21 days rather than 14 at this stage.
