Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Wirral (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 18 April 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Legal Services Bill [HL].


Legal Services Bill [HL]

My Lords, I am much persuaded by the noble Lord and his offer to improve government Amendment No. 317 is readily accepted. But having listened to his detailed explanation, I am now absolutely convinced that these two amendments stand side by side; Amendment No. 316 to cover the immediate position and Amendment No. 317 to provide a way into the future whereby the study under Amendment No. 316 can be followed up time and again through the mechanism of the annual report. I am grateful to the Minister, but I am still persuaded that Amendment No. 316 can sit alongside Amendment No. 317, so I would like to test the opinion of the House. On Question, Whether the said amendment(No. 316) shall be agreed to? Their Lordships divided: Contents, 36; Not-Contents, 38.
