Proceeding contribution from Lord Lea of Crondall (Labour) in the House of Lords on Friday, 22 February 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on House of Lords (Amendment) Bill [HL].
House of Lords (Amendment) Bill [HL]
My Lords, only this week, on Monday, in a reply to Sir Patrick Cormack in the Commons, Jack Straw said that it was not in the interests of public inquiry that there should be any public scrutiny of the work of the Joint Committee by way of publishing its minutes. That is precisely the sort of deal, if you like, that is a total affront to democracy and the total antithesis of it.
