Proceeding contribution from Lord Lester of Herne Hill (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 13 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Forced Marriage (Civil Protection) Bill [HL].


Forced Marriage (Civil Protection) Bill [HL]

My Lords, I put my name to the amendments and I agree with them. I shall leave the valedictory part of my remarks until later in the debate. I am glad that the Official Opposition supported my original Bill on Second Reading, and I am glad that although there was a certain degree of what I termed, ““grumpiness”” at a particular stage, that subsequently disappeared.
