Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 3 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Constitution.

Constitution

My Lords, I have always been a long believer that in your Lordships’ House we have people of talent whom we should utilise and I am delighted that the noble Lord is available to my right honourable friend the Secretary of State for Justice in the way that he has described. There is no question at the moment of looking to repeal anything. What we have said within the document is that we want to look further at what else might be done and it would be in that context that we will explore the issue.
