Proceeding contribution from Baroness Noakes (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 28 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Company Law Reform Bill [HL].


Company Law Reform Bill [HL]

My point is that at the moment the Takeover Panel will be subject to the normal laws regarding confidentiality, but it has no specific authorisation to disclose that information. There are no gateways at the moment. The noble and learned Lord says that when we have the Takeover Panel, we have to provide gateways. I am not sure that that case has been argued. Perhaps he might like to make the case for establishing gateways for confidential information from the Takeover Panel to a number of other bodies.
