Proceeding contribution from Lord Gordon of Strathblane (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 10 May 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Company Law Reform Bill [HL].
Company Law Reform Bill [HL]
My Lords, I thank the noble Baroness for giving way. To say that the OFR was welcomed by everyone is, I fear, nonsense. The business community was up in arms about it. The auditing profession was up in arms because it was being asked to audit opinions about the future rather than facts about the past. So it was certainly not universally welcomed.
