Proceeding contribution from Lord Jenkin of Roding (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 4 December 2007. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [HL].


Human Fertilisation and Embryology Bill [HL]

I expressed at Second Reading my admiration for the way in which Phil Willis chaired our committee, but I do not agree with everything that he said, which he recognises. No one could be happier than me if the position could be resolved by an amendment to the Human Tissue Act, because, as I explained in my Second Reading speech, I am advised by the House authorities that it is outwith the scope of the Bill and so cannot be done.
