Proceeding contribution from Lord Taylor of Holbeach (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 21 January 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL].

Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]

I thank the Minister for that response. The amendment does not focus on the list to which the Minister referred or on the general power of the Secretary of State to add people to that list, but on the third section of the clause, which concerns the Secretary of State’s role. The amendment focuses not on the MMO but on the Secretary of State, ensuring that he performs that function and does not add to the list anyone who does not have a proper marine function. In the circumstances I am not happy with the Minister’s reply and I wish to test the opinion of the Committee. Division on Amendment 67. Contents 33; Not-Contents 39. Amendment 67 disagreed. Amendments 68 and 69 not moved. Clause 16 agreed. Clauses 17 to 19 agreed.
