Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 21 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL].


Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL]

On Amendments Nos. 58 and 64, I should like to ask not so much about the substance as the procedure. I must have led a very sheltered life, because I cannot recall ever seeing the Treasury—we all know that it happens in practice—being able to over-ride a Secretary of State put in print in quite those terms. Is this the normal way to express that the Treasury can do something or that the Secretary of State cannot do something unless the Treasury consents?
