Proceeding contribution from Baroness McIntosh of Pickering (Conservative) 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)

The problem exists in all national parks, where there is a conflict of interest between those on the national park authority who have a business in the park and those who have a business outside the park, and may therefore have a vested interest in willing a business in the park to succeed or fail. Is the hon. Gentleman happy with the 20 per cent. figure? Does he believe that it is a step in the right direction? Is he happy to leave it to the House and the other place to decide whether to adopt the Scottish scenario? What has he concluded?
