Terrorist Asset-Freezing (Temporary Provisions) Bill

I can understand the right hon. Lady taking a legalistic point of view, but surely she should also go to the high ground and look back to 2001 and Lord Newton's Committee, or to 2004 and her hon.

They did not interpret the matter on legalistic grounds; they based their contention on the fact that the measures should have been in primary legislation on broad, ethical grounds.
