Proceeding contribution from Lord Rotherwick (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 January 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill.
Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill
I am grateful to the noble Baroness, but she makes my point very well herself. People in this House give up a couple of days of their time when they could be doing a highly paid job and gaining a pension for that. They do it for the honour. We feel, like my noble friend Lord Peel, that we are considering a similar case. Working for Natural England, looking after the jewels of our countryside, would be an honour.
