Proceeding contribution from Baroness Farrington of Ribbleton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 November 2005. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Commons Bill [HL].


Commons Bill [HL]

I shall look very carefully at the point. In my experience of debates in your Lordships’ House, I have found that the issue of ““shall”” or ““may”” is returned to in many pieces of legislation. However, that in no way underestimates the seriousness of the point made by the noble Earl. I shall write to him with clarification because I can see that his concern is a serious one; I do not seek to make light of it.
