§ Sir Ivan LawrenceTo ask the Attorney-General how many public interest immunity certificates were signed in each year since 1964.
§ The Attorney-GeneralI understand that no central records have been kept.
As to the signing of certificates by the Law Officers, I refer my hon. and learned Friend to the answer that I gave yesterday to the hon. Member for Birmingham, Perry Barr (Mr. Rooker), Official Report, column 13. We do not have any records for any earlier period.
