Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 8 December 2025

Debate

Official Secrets Act and Espionage

Contribution

I put on record my thanks to the Deputy National Security Adviser. He is an exemplary professional and has provided evidence in line with government policy of the time and government policy today. We continue to work closely with him and we are very grateful for his work. Noble Lords will appreciate that I am not noble and learned, just noble. On that basis, given that I am not a lawyer, this is not something that I can comment on, but we were very disappointed to see the case not taken forward.
