Notizen:
When Sir Anthony Blunt's misdeeds were exposed to public gaze by revelations that he was the so-called fourth man in the notorious group who had spied for Russia, an important area of the criminal justice process was partially uncovered as a result. The Prime Minister confirmed in a House of Commons Written Answer that Mr. Blunt (as he later became) had been granted immunity from prosecution as long ago as 1964 by the Attorney-General, Sir John Hobson. No attempt was made to suggest that this was a routine occurrence, but in the ensuing debate, the Prime Minister asserted that “it is not unusual for the Attorney-General to be asked to authorise immunity from prosecution in return for co-operation in pursuit of inquiries. It happens from time to time in the course of criminal investigations.”
