Proceeding contribution from Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 30 January 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill 2005-06.

Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill

For the record, I greatly agree with the noble Lord, Lord Judd. Going back to his previous comments, I bow to his much greater experience in these things. I am slightly surprised at the amendment, because we spent so much time during the passage of the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000 pleading for more provisions to enable people to understand the countryside better. Perhaps it is a probing amendment, but I certainly could not agree with the spirit of it, for the reasons that the noble Lord, Lord Judd, so eloquently spelt out.
