Proceeding contribution from Lord Clement-Jones (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 31 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill.


London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

The noble Lord, Lord Borrie, has put his finger on the point here. Much of the deliberation of the ODA will involve land. Therefore what we are really seeking is a two-tier system. At the outset some people will be designated to deal with planning, while another group on the board of the ODA will be those allowed to deliberate at large. I suppose the Minister has a reasonably clear idea of what he thinks that means, but the essence of this lies in the interpretation of the Bill and the Act it eventually will become. Under what other circumstances has this sort of interpretation been made? Is the word ““involvement”” defined anywhere else? Is there case law to which people can refer? We need to tease this out.
