Proceeding contribution from Lord Selsdon (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Friday, 23 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on House of Lords (Members' Taxation Status) Bill [HL].
House of Lords (Members’ Taxation Status) Bill [HL]
I might point out, my Lords, that a Private Member’s Bill in your Lordships' House costs £100,000 if the normal charges of lawyers, accountants and others are added up, which is a lot of money. We are spending two hours in this Chamber and, after adding all that up, the cost to the taxpayer of the fees that will be charged by the Liberal party is proportionately greater than they deserve.
