Extradition Act 2003

Baroness Laing of Elderslie Excerpts

Thursday 21st January 2021 Commons Chamber

Motion made, and Question proposed, That this House do now adjourn.—(Tom Pursglove.)

[Madam Deputy Speaker (Dame Eleanor Laing)]

Before I call the right hon. Member for Haltemprice and Howden (Mr Davis), I remind all hon. Members that the judgment of a court earlier this month in the case of Julian Assange is the subject of an appeal, so matters considered in that case are sub judice and should not be referred to. The matter of criminal charges against Anne Sacoolas in connection with the death of Harry Dunn is also sub judice. I sincerely thank the right hon. Member for his courtesy in consulting in advance of this debate, and I remind any other Member who should seek to participate in this debate to be equally mindful of the sub judice resolution and matters that are still before the courts.
