Lawfare and UK Court System

Proceeding contribution from Damian Collins (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 January 2022. It occurred during Backbench debate on Lawfare and UK Court System.

As a former Chair of the Select Committee on Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, I know from experience that Committee Clerks and staff of the House are often sent repeated requests for information about data they hold. Some information is exempt, with respect to the main business of the Committee, but some is not. A huge amount of Clerks’ time and Committee time is taken up with processing those requests.
