Abu Qatada

Asked what the PM’s view was of the legal setback over the deportation of Abu Qatada, the Prime Minister’s Official Spokesman (PMS) said that Government is disappointed with the outcome and will now request permission to appeal directly from the Supreme Court. PMS added that the Government remains committed to deporting him and will continue to work with the Jordanian authorities to address the outstanding legal issues preventing his deportation. Asked whether this was raised at the National Security Council (NSC), the PMS said that Government doesn’t comment on the discussions or the exact timings of the NSC. The PMS was also asked what contact the PM had had with the Home Secretary on the matter, the PMS said that he talks to her all the time.
