House of Lords Bill [HL]

moved, as an amendment to Amendment No. 1, Amendment No. 2: 2: Before Clause 1, line 7, at end insert— ““( ) This section shall have effect upon the making of an order by the Secretary of State, and no such order may be made unless— (a) the Secretary of State has published a report stating that the policy of Her Majesty’s Government is that the House of Lords should be renamed the Senate; and (b) the House of Commons has approved the report by resolution.”” The noble Lord said: This amendment would amend the new clause proposed by the noble Earl, Lord Caithness. I say at the outset that there is a terrible sense of having been here, not once before, but perhaps 17 times.
