Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 23 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL].


Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL]

Better that I be confused than those who have to comply with the Bill when enacted. I am still not clear how the LBRO can comply with Clause 13(3), exercising its functions in a way that is proportionate, and how that lies with Clause 13(1) and (2). If it exercises its functions in a proportionate way, there is no need to say that it must not impose unnecessary burdens. That is my understanding. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 45 to 49 not moved.] Clause 13 agreed to. Clause 14 agreed to. Clause 15 [Guidance or directions by the Secretary of State]:
