Lord Carlile Detention Quotations

I think a much tighter system of control is required, though I do think that fairly lengthy detention is justified in a very small number of cases by evidence.

A more searching system is required to reflect the seriousness of the state holding someone in high-security custody without charge for as long as three months, ... I question whether what is proposed in the bill would be proof to challenge under the Human Rights Act given the length of extended detention envisaged.
