Proceeding contribution from Annette Brooke (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Children and Adoption Bill [HL].


Children and Adoption Bill [Lords]

I thank you, Mr. Speaker, for drawing my attention to the fact that I was straying. Having made all my points, I conclude by saying that, overall, we support the basis of the Bill. As I have said, it is churlish to vote against a Bill if there is nothing in it with which one disagrees. The Bill has some good provisions—particularly on adoption, contact orders and enforcement—so we will vote with the Government, but that does not mean that we think it is perfect.
