Proceeding contribution from Lord Phillips of Sudbury (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 8 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill on Charities Bill [HL].


Charities Bill [HL]

My Lords, by contrast, I am delighted with the amendment and grateful to the Government. I would like to reassure the noble Lord, Lord Hodgson, that actually this prevents what he fears—that is to say the one-size-fits-all approach. There are classes of charity that are not about innovation at all, for example, almshouses, which I mentioned last time—there are a lot of categories. I think this is useful and I hope that the Minister will reassure the noble Lord.
