Proceeding contribution from Baroness Miller of Chilthorne Domer (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Animal Welfare Bill.

Animal Welfare Bill

My Lords, I should just like to comment that more and more provision is being made through secondary legislation. That is not really a debating point for the Bill, but it is something to flag up with the House that, as we will inevitably debate Lords reform in future—the powers and so on—the fact that we cannot amend secondary legislation is something that we will want to come back to, so that Bills such as this can pass with our confidence that we will receive a far more satisfactory response when regulations arrive on the Floor of the House.
