More details (from a fairly level-headed viewpoint) have been
published at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/04/02/ccdp_government_snoopi=

It looks like for more details we'll have to wait for the Queen's

other guff) when it looks like she'll announce it with all the other
legislation her government will try to pass over the next year.
