Proceeding contribution from Lord Jenkin of Roding (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 19 July 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill.


Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill

So what! Sorry, I am interrupting the noble Lord from a sedentary position, but at this time of night perhaps one is almost allowed to do that. It is a burden on the noble Lord’s officials, but it is lifting the burden on the farmers who have to understand it. That is what it is about. We want to make sure that the people to whom the regulations apply understand what they are being asked to do or not to do. I am grateful for the support of the noble Lord, Lord Desai, who also served on the committee. We need to address this problem. Where better than in this Bill?
