Proceeding contribution from Earl Peel (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill.

Natural Environment and Rural Communities Bill

My Lords, I, too, support my noble friend’s amendment. As a point of principle, I do not approve of retrospective legislation, but as the noble Lord, Lord Bradshaw, described succinctly, we are talking about special circumstances. If the Government do not accept the amendment, that will allow those intolerable activities to continue, and one of the major objectives—indeed, opportunities—of the Bill will be lost. I sincerely hope that the Minister will take on board those important points.
