Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 6 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill.


London Olympic Games and Paralympic Games Bill

My Lords, I hope the Minister will forgive me for saying that, while I entirely share his sentiments about the importance of sustainability and I understand the examples that he has given, he has not addressed my amendment. I asked when such considerations might not be relevant, because if they are always relevant, the words ““wherever relevant”” are irrelevant, unnecessary and totally misleading. I will read what the Minister said, but with little hope that it will be much clearer. However, I can see that half of my argument is still open, but that the other half is firmly shut. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 3 not moved.]
