Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 March 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 was not seeking to be dismissive of debate. We live and learn, and the Government are happy because these debates are informative and give us steers in particular directions. I was indicating why we would expect the issue of the defence to come within the by-law. To search for a general defence raises obvious problems: that was my argument. Of course, I will look at the additional point made by the noble Baroness and reflect on it.
