Proceeding contribution from Lord Norton of Louth (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 March 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Parliament (Joint Departments) Bill [HL].


Parliament (Joint Departments) Bill [HL]

I support my noble friend’s amendment, which I touched on at Second Reading. On the face of it, an asymmetrical relationship between the mechanisms will be adopted for the two Houses. It may be that there are legitimate reasons for that. As I mentioned at Second Reading, it may be a matter for the other House to determine its own procedures, but it would be interesting to tease out the reasoning, so that it is on the record.
