One factor probably contibuting to our present difficulty is that the Second Stage debate concluded earlier then we had anticipated, which is surprising. Given the amount of expressions of concern in the past on the subject of extradition I would have expected that some of the more vocal backbench Members of both Government parties, who have been loud in expressing concern about extradition in the past, might have been here to express that concern.
At one time the "stop extradition" slogan was to be seen everywhere. I am surprised that Members who were so concerned about this issue in the past have allowed the debate to collapse.
