Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 31 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Tribunals Courts and Enforcement Bill [HL].

Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Bill [HL]

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Lord for returning to this issue and for indicating his purpose beforehand. As he rightly points out, Rule 54.19(3) covers similar ground to that contained in Clause 132. The rule is, however, drafted in a slightly different way from Clause 132, as he said, and is rather ambiguous. We do not consider it satisfactory. I will therefore ask the Civil Procedure Rule Committee to amend the rule in order to ensure consistency with Clause 132, and I hope that it will look favourably on that request. I hope that that reassures the noble Lord and that he now feels able to withdraw his amendment.
