Proceeding contribution from Baroness Andrews (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 3 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Bill [HL].

Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction Bill [HL]

Noble Lords have been extremely generous, and I will certainly pass on the thanks of both noble Lords for the exceptional work of the policy officials and the lawyers. Noble Lords will appreciate that it was quite a challenge to look at the legislation and to make sense of it in the way that was needed. I am very pleased that we were able to do so. I pay tribute to the persistence and the assiduity of the noble Lords in question. It has been a long journey, but I am so pleased that we have made it in this Bill. Amendment 218 agreed. Clause 142, as amended, agreed. Clauses 143 and 144 agreed.
