Chris Grayling
My right hon. Friend is absolutely right—and it is worth pointing out that the conversation that is alleged to have taken place, and which the former Lord President said did not take place, did not take place at a Privy Council meeting.
Tom Brake (Carshalton and Wallington) (LD)
Does the Leader of the House agree that when it comes to serial offenders, one of the most effective forms of reparation for the victim is restorative justice, whereby the offender apologises directly to the victim? Does he support the principles of restorative justice?
Chris Grayling
I support the principles of justice, and I also support the principle that people are innocent unless proven guilty.
