More details (from a fairly level-headed viewpoint) have been published at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/04/02/ccdp_government_snooping_plans/. It looks like for more details we'll have to wait for the Queen's Speech on the 9th of May (and the following white / command papers and 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.
