Proceeding contribution from Lord Clement-Jones (Liberal Democrat) 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

This is entirely on the basis of information provided by the department; namely, that those items of information specified in the report of the Delegated Powers Committee were the ones to be prescribed in regulation. So it is an entirely circular argument. There is no argument about the nature of the information. The argument is about the fact that, since the department is very clear about the information required, it could be in primary legislation and not in secondary legislation.
