Proceeding contribution from Baroness Howe of Idlicote (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 21 July 2008. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Education and Skills Bill.

Education and Skills Bill

I was merely trying to put across that the last thing one wants to hear is that those who are trying to increase their skills for their own sake and for the sake of the whole community are to be further deprived of the ability to do that. Bearing in mind that we have to move on to the dinner hour debate, I thank noble Lords who have contributed to the debate and have kindly supported the amendment. I shall withdraw the amendment but shall definitely have to read carefully what has been said, as will my noble friend Lord Dearing. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 211 had been withdrawn from the Marshalled List.] [Amendments Nos. 211A to 213 not moved.] Clause 71 agreed to.
