In the right hon. Lady’s discussions with her counterparts it would be helpful if she could impress on the American Government the importance of acting at all times within the rule of law. That applies in particular to cases of extraordinary rendition. What is wrong about extraordinary rendition is that people are being conveyed from one place to another and interrogated outside the ordinary protection afforded by the courts of the United States and other countries.

Will the Minister cause his officials to say to the US Administration that they would be better placed to lecture Cuba on human rights if they were to ensure that the detainees in the Guantanamo bay base had the same rights that they would have if they were held in the US?
