Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Shaw (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)

As a number of hon. Members have said, the Bill is not the appropriate vehicle to change the constitution of the Broads Authority. As I have signalled, I want to look at this across the piece to take account of the other national parks in England. I will therefore issue a consultation on the future of the constitution and the composition of the Broads Authority and other park authorities in England. I will advise the House when I intend do so. There will not be long delays, and I hope that I can issue something over the summer period.
