Emergency legislation giving the security services access to people's phone and internet records is set to be rushed through the House of Commons.
The Data Retention and Investigatory Powers Bill will be debated and voted on by MPs, before moving to the House of Lords tomorrow.
The plans are supported by the three main parties but opposed by civil liberties campaigners.
They were drafted in response to a European Court of Justice ruling.
Court rulingUnveiling the measures last week in a joint news conference with Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg, Prime Minister David Cameron said it was about maintaining existing capabilities - not introducing new "snooping" laws.

Liberty's Shami Chakrabarti says "contempt" is being shown to parliament
The government said it was forced to act after the European Court struck down an EU directive in April requiring phone and internet companies to retain communications data on the grounds that it infringed human rights.
But campaign group Liberty said it was about "snooping on everyone".
The final Commons vote is expected at 10pm after an extended sitting.
Labour MP Tom Watson has tabled amendments that would mean the legislation expired at the end of 2014.
Mr Watson said he had the backing of former Tory leadership contender David Davis, as well as more than 15 other MPs.
In a letter to Labour leader Ed Milband, Mr Watson wrote of his "huge personal disappointment" at the party's backing of the measures.
