Proceeding contribution from Lord Dixon-Smith (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 14 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HL) on Climate Change Bill [HL].
Climate Change Bill [HL]
Even though we in this House are somewhat independent of our political masters, if it is deemed inappropriate that Members should have a political affiliation, how far down the democratic chain is it proposed to take that because regional authorities still exist? There are county councils, unitary authorities, district councils and parish councils. Are we going all the way down that chain as well or are we making a distinction and having a form of segregation, which is not very PC but which I have to agree is probably sensible?
