Victims and Prisoners Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Pannick (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 21 May 2024. It occurred during Debate on bills on Victims and Prisoners Bill.

I am puzzled by this because it is an unusual thing in legislation to say that Section 3 is disapplied. Is it not the inevitable inference from the inclusion of that provision disapplying Section 3 in this legislation that the Government are seriously concerned, at the very least, that the substantive provisions would breach the substantive provisions of the Human Rights Act?
