an important constitutional principle which demands: equality under the law; access
to independent and impartial justice; government subject to the law; law that is clear

full and frank legal advice, and to ensure the Government acts in full knowledge of
the legal position. I take that responsibility seriously, and will continue to do
so.</p>
