Lord Laird – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Laird on 2015-12-17.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the decision of the Investigatory Powers Tribunal in the case of children A and B in relation to Prism, heard on 10 December.

Lord Bates

The Investigatory Powers Tribunal (IPT) and any decision it makes are entirely independent of Government. The Home Office was not a named respondent in the case and we have made no assessment of the Tribunal’s decision.
