HC Deb 03 November 1998 vol 318 c490W
Mr. McNamara

To ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what plans she has to introduce legislation to comply with the Murray judgment at the European Court of Human Rights. [56292]

Mr. Ingram

The Government are actively considering their response to the ECHR judgment in the case of John Murray v the United Kingdom and hope to be able to make an announcement in the near future which will outline how procedures in England, Wales and Northern Ireland are to be affected.

The Government have already incorporated the ECHR ruling in the provisions contained in the Criminal Justice (Terrorism and Conspiracy) Act 1998.
