Coroners and Justice Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Beith (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 9 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Coroners and Justice Bill.
I have the utmost respect for my hon. Friend and his judgment, but I actually think he is wrong about this. A number of cases have arisen over the years in which prosecuting authorities, security and intelligence services and in some cases the police have had to make a judgment that proceeding would cause so much harm to the chance of collecting intelligence in future that it was not the right course of action.
