Questions about the interrogation of terror suspects have been "dealt with from the British perspective", Prime Minister David Cameron has said.
Mr Cameron said British agents had been given new guidance on how to behave.
He was speaking after the publication of a Senate report on the "brutal" CIA interrogation of al-Qaeda suspects.
Last December Sir Peter said Britain had been inappropriately involved in the rendition and ill-treatment of terror suspects.
He found no evidence officers had been directly involved in the torture or rendition of suspects but raised 27 questions the Intelligence and Security Committee was considering.
Mr Cameron said: "I'm satisfied that our system is dealing with all of these issues.
"And I, as prime minister, have issued guidance to all of our agents and others working around the world about how they have to handle these issues in future.
"So I'm confident that this issue has been dealt with from the British perspective, I can reassure the public about that."

The lump is where it was swept under the carpet, the same as any security related questions. My source tells me that UK security services now have to say "Please attach these electrodes to your testicles" rather than "Attach these bassed things now". The new guidance from services so secret that everything they do is ok. Oh and you get a pair of free fluffy dice to hang from the rear view mirror of your car, but only once they've sent you to the new British gulag. Tory party taking lessons from a communist dictator, never thought I'd see the day.
