Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Bates (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 4 February 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill.

I will leave that to the schoolmasters. However, in this regard, my noble friend should find this reassuring because we are saying that the Secretary of State should have a particular regard. That is a higher threshold to be aware of: the importance of academic freedom of speech within universities. It is a higher test and it is appropriate to say that before she offers direction, she ought to be able to satisfy whether that test has been met. I shall hand back to the noble Baroness.
