Proceeding contribution from Lord Wedderburn of Charlton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education and Inspections Bill.


Education and Inspections Bill

My Lords, before the noble Lord sits down, perhaps I may ask him a question. I preface it by saying that I have always admired him as one of the most broadminded members of the Roman Catholic community that I have had the pleasure to make the acquaintance of. But when he talks about the effect of prayer, has he read all the documents on the great prayer experiment? If he has not, they are described in Richard Dawkins’s book and are wide and scientific in nature. But perhaps the noble Lord has not looked at that in his broadminded education.
