Proceeding contribution from Duke of Montrose (Conservative) 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]

Our Amendment No. 247 is grouped with the government amendments. First, as we are reviewing and redrafting all the laws of commons, it seems strange that the Government are taking the attitude of saying, ““There are a whole lot of laws and we have not had time to look at them””. One would think that they should have been looked at. I am not too clear on how these things are dealt with in such legislation. Our amendment is merely probing, because there were no Explanatory Notes on subsection (2). I would be grateful if the Minister would tell us what lies behind that and, presumably, behind their Amendment No. 248, which amends subsection (2).
