Proceeding contribution from Paddy Tipping (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 18 April 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Commons Bill [HL].


Commons Bill [Lords]

Let me make a confession. I am not sure that I understand all the Bill’s ramifications, but I have learned rapidly and I expect that a number of issues will be discussed in Committee, as the Minister suggested. It is a fundamental principle of mine, however, that complicated, technical Bills should be subject to pre-legislative scrutiny. I accept that Ministers in the Department wanted to take advantage of the opportunity offered by an unforeseen legislative slot, but that is not necessarily the best way forward.
