Book excerpt: This report details the work of the Intelligence and Security Committee (ISC) for the period December 2008 to July 2009. The majority of the Committee's time during the reporting period was spent examining and taking evidence on the policy, administration and expenditure of the three intelligence and security Agencies and the wider intelligence community. The remainder of the Committee's time this year has been spent on two separate investigations: updating its "Review of the Intelligence on the London Terrorist Attacks on 7 July 2005" to reflect developments since the review was originally sent to the Prime Minister on 8 July 2008 (the completed review was published on 19 May 2009, Cm. 7617, ISBN 9780101761727); and conducting an investigation - as a result of allegations surrounding the case of Binyam Mohamed al-Habashi - into the policies and procedures that the Agencies follow with regard to contact with detainees, and also intelligence sharing more widely.
