Proceeding contribution from Lord Goodhart (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 19 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Compensation Bill [HL].


Compensation Bill [HL]

My Lords, I am entirely happy with these further amendments and I am very pleased indeed that they resulted from the Government accepting an amendment proposed by my honourable friend Simon Hughes. The fact that there are very few Commons amendments, other than those relating to mesothelioma, indicates that the Minister and her team of civil servants did a very successful job in greatly improving the Bill earlier when it was in your Lordships’ House. I congratulate her on that.
