Bar Council Press Release
21 September 2006
Stephen Hockman QC, Chairman of the Bar Council, today threw his
weight behind moves to allow intercept evidence to be admissible
in court. The step, previously opposed by the Government, police
and security services, has long been advocated by prosecution and
defence barristers keen to find ways of supporting effective
terrorism prosecutions and serious criminal trials.
