§ 51. Mr. Dalyellasked the Attorney-General if he will make a statement on the progress of inquiries resulting from the search of BBC premises in Glasgow in February in relation to "Project Zircon".
§ The Attorney-GeneralThe police investigation which started in January is continuing, and the matter is being considered by the Director of Public Prosecutions.
§ Mr. DalyellFebruary, March, April, May, and now June—is it right that the police investigation involving the Special Branch on that Sunday morning should go on for so long? Is not the truth of the matter that this has little to do with the national security of our country and everything to do with pressurising the BBC?
§ The Attorney-GeneralNo, Sir.
