Viscount Colville of Culross
If I may put the record straight, it was not a BBC lawyer who advised me.
Lord Keen of Elie
My respect for all lawyers remains undiminished.
As the noble Lord, Lord Stevenson, observed, some issues of fundamental importance underlie this; I refer not just to press freedom but to fundamental rights. I therefore have welcomed the contributions to this debate, but I hope that at this time the noble Lord, Lord Black, will feel it appropriate to withdraw his amendment.
