Justice and Security Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Jack Straw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 December 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Justice and Security Bill [Lords].

The right hon. and learned Gentleman is correct to say, of course, that the previous Labour Administration introduced closed material proceedings in 1997, with support from all parties, as I recall. They have worked. Will he confirm that in at least seven of more than 30 Special Immigration Appeals Commission cases since the beginning of 2007, including the two he mentioned, the court has found against the Government and in favour of the potential deportee?
