Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Phillips of Sudbury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 17 July 2014. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bills on Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Bill.

Before the Minister sits down—I am keen to have his response to this—if, as he now confirms, the Government think that there is no difference in meaning between “considers” and “believes”, why not have consistency between the language of RIPA and that of the Bill so as to avoid confusion and argument in future?
