Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hamwee (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 10 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Housing and Regeneration Bill.

Housing and Regeneration Bill

moved Amendment No. 76A: 76A: Clause 27, page 13, line 38, at end insert ““subject to regulations made under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (c. 36)”” The noble Baroness said: First, I apologise to the Committee for arriving late, but I was at a conference about scrutiny. Amendments Nos. 76A and 104C will not, I hope, need to detain your Lordships for very long. The first of the amendments is about the HCA, while the second is about Oftenant. Both those organisations will be subject to the freedom of information legislation. My amendments seek for reassurance that the charging powers in the two respective clauses will be subject to regulations made under the Freedom of Information Act, which itself sets charges for providing information in the circumstances with which it deals. I beg to move.
