Proceeding contribution from Lord Howard of Rising (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 22 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Digital Switchover (Disclosure of Information) Bill.

Digital Switchover (Disclosure of Information) Bill

I thank the Minister.We should remember that in certain multiple occupations, some will be entitled to help and others will not. There should be some method for landlords to make application, or tenants who are not entitled to help may bear a disproportionate amount of the cost, which may cause resentment and problems within those multiple dwellings. It could be most severe in the case of small places, where there are a lot of old people. Having said that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
