- Nóta "Absolute privilege allows statements to be made without fear of legal action being taken, even if those statements should be defamatory, untrue, or even a combination of the two. This level of privilege is only given to a select few. Examples of circumstances in which absolute privilege is recognised include:* Houses of Parliament – MPs are able to speak freely during parliamentary proceedings and cannot be sued for slander (verbal defamation) or even breaking the Official Secrets Act 1989* Hansard – the official report produced to report proceedings in the Houses of Parliament* judicial proceedings – judges, lawyers, juries and witnesses are among those free to make defamatory statements – even with malice – during judicial proceedings.Reference: Twenty-six Letter World.
