Proceeding contribution from Lord Addington (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 7 February 2008. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill.


Child Maintenance and Other Payments Bill

The words ““sledgehammer”” and ““nut”” come to mind. I think that our concern was justified and that we were right to raise it, and I thank the Government for including something which seems to have a slightly weightier blow behind it. Having said that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. Clause 22, as amended, agreed to.
