A question in the House of Lords on 5 February 2009 concerning proposals for information recovery
Lord Trimble: My Lords, will the noble Baroness look carefully at the novel proposals for what is called “information recovery”, which is part of the matter touched on by the noble Baroness speaking for the Liberal Democrats? This could require the production of documents and compel witnesses to attend and give evidence at what is, in effect, a trial held in secret, without a jury and without all the safeguards of our legal system. I suggest to the Minister that she should not wait for consultation but should just say that this proposal is not human rights-compliant.
