Proceeding contribution from Lord Lea of Crondall (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 19 March 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on House of Lords Bill [HL].


House of Lords Bill [HL]

Will my noble friend confirm that his reason for rejecting this Bill is that it would delay fundamental reform? Indeed, those were the words he used the last time around this circuit. Given that it will take something like seven or eight years for fundamental reform to take place, can he justify his statement that the Bill would delay it?
