Proceeding contribution from Lord Dearing (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 18 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Statistics and Registration Service Bill.


Statistics and Registration Service Bill

My Lords, I thank the Minister for that positive reply. I entirely agree with the point that the noble Lord, Lord Jenkin, made about migration. I have received similar representations. I would be glad to support the amendment relating to the functions of the board that he has tabled with the noble Baroness, Lady Noakes, and the noble Lord, Lord Newby. I ventured to make a similar point last time around. With the assurance given by the Minister and the prospect of what might lie ahead, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn.
