Proceeding contribution from Baroness Falkner of Margravine (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 18 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Housing and Regeneration Bill.
Housing and Regeneration Bill
I accept that the standards defined in subsection (2)(a), (b) and (c) are quite rightly core standards. When I referred to the powers being rather broad, I was interpreting the words ““in the Secretary of State’s opinion”” in subsection (2). I do not understand why the word ““opinion”” is there. If the clause is to address those standards, it should say so; it should not leave it open to a particular Secretary of State’s opinion.
