Crime and Courts Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Pannick (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 10 December 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Crime and Courts Bill [HL].

I entirely agree that judges deserve all the protection necessary in those circumstances. However, the press and broadcasters are perfectly entitled to publish photographs of the judge who has heard the terrorist trial or any other sensational case. This amendment would have no impact in that respect.
