Synopsis: |
This report from the Joint Committee on Human Rights examines the Counter-Terrorism Bill (ISBN 0215709411) before its second reading in the House of Commons. It concentrates on five significant human rights issues needing thorough parliamentary scrutiny: pre-charge detention; post-charge questioning; control orders and special advocates; the threshold test for charging; the admissibility of intercept.In addition the Committee notes the new measure about coroners' inquests involving material affecting national security, which it believes has the most serious implications for the UK's ability to comply with the European Convention on Human Rights to provide an adequate and effective investigation where an individual has been killed as a result of the use of force (and particularly where the death is the result of use of force by state agents). HC 199, ninth report of session 2007-08. |
