Proceeding contribution from Earl of Caithness (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 December 2005. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Identity Cards Bill 2005-06.


Identity Cards Bill

I am very disappointed by the noble Baroness’s reply. She hid behind words in a manner that is not usual for her. Notwithstanding the correct point that she made, does she agree that, given that the minimum standards came about as a result of the Hague programme and that they were based on a Council resolution and prepared using facilities and paper in Brussels, it would have been courteous for the matter to come before the sub-committee of your Lordships’ House and that not to have done so was to show disrespect and disregard for our committee system?
