Proceeding contribution from David Leslie Taylor (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 7 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Broads Authority Bill (By Order).


Broads Authority Bill (By Order)

My hon. Friend referred to four petitions against the Bill which triggered the witness statements that were given to our Committee. The firm impression that I gained from the petitioners was that they had lodged technical petitions, because they wanted to air their concerns and seek reassurances. As far as I recall, there was no fundamental, dyed-in-the-wool opposition to the Bill's provisions.
