Conduct Of The Home Secretary

EDM number 1027 in 1999-00, proposed by Edward Garnier on 25/07/2000.

That this House condemns the Home Secretary for his statement during the second reading of the Criminal Justice (Mode of Trial) (No 2) Bill that the bill enjoyed 'the active endorsement of the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Bingham' (Official Report, Volume 345, No 58, column 886), when correspondence between the Noble and Learned Lord and the Home Secretary now shows that this was not the case; and calls on the Home Secretary to apologise to the Noble and Learned Lord, and to the House.

This motion has been signed by a total of 11 MPs.
