Proceeding contribution from Lord Lyell of Markyate (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 19 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL].

Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL]

My Lords, I had not intended to intervene here but, as the Minister will realise when we come to the groups of amendments with which I am involved, the question of numbers of prosecutions, and therefore numbers of regulated bodies or individuals that might be prosecuted, will become important. Can he give the House any idea of what proportion there is now, and what proportion is anticipated, of enforcement actions likely to be covered by instructions from primary authorities or the requirement to consult them?
