Proceeding contribution from Roger Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Commons Bill (HL).


Commons Bill [Lords]

I, too, welcome the amendments. As the hon. Member for South-East Cambridgeshire (Mr. Paice) said, they get rid of the confusion that could arise between the statutory bodies to be set up under the Bill and the voluntary associations that the Minister’s predecessor anticipated would continue to have purposes and functions in the future. The amendments will be an excellent resolution of that problem; they will give people greater clarity about what is a statutory and what is a voluntary body, which can be only to the good and will simplify the management of commons.
