Proceeding contribution from Baroness Carnegy of Lour (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 30 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Consumers Estate Agents and Redress Bill [HL].

Consumers, Estate Agents and Redress Bill [HL]

My Lords, I was not able to take part in the proceedings so far on the Bill but I have read them with interest. The Minister has virtually rewritten this part of the Bill. Why on earth did the Government pay so little attention to the requirements of devolution that they did not do a lot of this in the first place? It seems to be an extraordinary waste of parliamentary time. Nevertheless, it is excellent that he has listened to the arguments and I am sure that everyone will be grateful for it.
