Proceeding contribution from Tom Brake (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 October 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Greater London Authority Bill.


Greater London Authority Bill

The hon. Gentleman said that he thought that the official Opposition in the other place had simply raised the matter for debate. Baroness Hanham, speaking in favour of two-term limits, said:"““The position should not become monopolised by any one individual or party…The role requires challenge, renewal and refreshment.””—[Official Report, House of Lords, 19 June 2007; Vol. 693, c. 115.]" Does the hon. Gentleman think that that is simply about engaging in a debate?
