Proceeding contribution from Lord Sharman (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 6 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Company Law Reform Bill [HL].


Company Law Reform Bill [HL]

No, I do not. All litigation turns on a phrase of one kind or another, and I see no particular difference in this phrase as to any other. We are seeking to condition what the individual director must do, and I am suggesting that he should take ““all reasonable steps””. I think that is an eminently sensible approach.
