Proceeding contribution from Lord Stoddart of Swindon (Independent Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 19 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health Bill.


Health Bill

had given notice of his intention to move Amendment No. 11:"Leave out Clause 5." The noble Lord said: My Lords, I will not keep the House very long. The Minister has done his best to answer all the questions, but I fear that he and I are poles apart, and it is a dialogue to the death as far as we are concerned. I believe that the clause is wrong; it is wrong in principle, it is completely unworkable and it will bring the law into disrepute. Only time will tell which of us is right; but I guess that it will come down in my favour. [Amendment No. 11 not moved.] Clause 6 [No-smoking signs]:
