Secret Courts

Caron Lindsay and Jo Shaw have written about Liberal disquiet over the Justice and Security Bill which would, as it stands, prevent some classes of defendants seeing the evidence against them. The suggestion is particularly worrying that the Home Office has brought forward votes on the contentious clauses in order to render nugatory any discussion at the LibDem conference which starts on 8th.

It is worth listening to the edition of BBC R4 "Law in Action" from last year in which the arguments for and against are exercised. (There is also a discussion on the legality of drone strikes.)
