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

No, I accept the principle that I said I accepted. However, I would not accept a principle that included an element of retrospectivity and tweaked it by being reasonable when one came to it. In the commercial world—there are large amounts of money and big commercial interests here as well as everything else; they are all for community benefit, but they are big interests—you would not have an agreement that said, ““A reasonable amount will be repaid at the end of the day””.
