Housing and Regeneration Bill

Have my noble friend and his colleagues fully taken on board the possible avalanche of matters that might need to be resolved by the new tribunal? I understand that there could be hundreds. The discussion paper talks in terms of 160, based upon experience; there could be more. Is the Minister satisfied that there is a fund of knowledge or expertise available that is waiting to be tapped and used? One of the concerns that has been expressed to me is whether you are going to get what you might call a lay person—someone representing the element of the park home owner—into this nexus. We do not want to find that it is just a professional body doing a professional job; these people really need to have a feel for the issues they are going to look at.
