European Convention on Human Rights Bill 2001: Report and Final Stages.

 

The Minister of State obviously cannot give a clearer reply. This is because they did not go down the proper way. They did not do the legislative incorporation, which every legal body told them they should. They chose the worst of the three options and everybody told them. I will not, therefore, apologise for the tangle we may be in this afternoon. It is all of the Government's own making. If we get tied up in knots here and if we are a little tiresome, all I can say is that this is the price.
