Proceeding contribution from Lord Bradshaw (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 29 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Concessionary Bus Travel Bill [HL].


Concessionary Bus Travel Bill [HL]

My Lords, perhaps I may reply to the noble Lord. We gave notice to the Government that we expected to have a reply today that would satisfy us, and that if we did not, we would press the matter at Third Reading. That has been accepted by the Government Chief Whip. We have been extremely quick in handling this Bill, mindful of the pressures of time on the House. In this case, we have gone to great lengths to ensure that the time of the House is used to best advantage.
