Proceeding contribution from Lord Avebury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 25 October 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Racial and Religious Hatred Bill.


Racial and Religious Hatred Bill

I hope the right reverend Prelate will forgive me for interrupting, but we had an injunction earlier today to bear in mind the need for self-regulation. I think that was a very valuable reminder. Surely if we have self-regulation we cannot go over matters that have already been discussed. The right reverend Prelate is repeating arguments which were addressed to a previous amendment. If not, it is almost a Second Reading speech, and we have heard a few of those today. I beg the right reverend Prelate to bear in mind that we have made changes to the Bill and that he is talking about parts of it which no longer exist.
