Proceeding contribution from Lord Razzall (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 April 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Postal Services Bill [HL].

Postal Services Bill [HL]

When the Minister winds up on this point, will he explain why the Government are simply not agreeing to leave the assets there and meet any deficiency? Why does there have to be this transfer of some assets, leaving others behind, which of course is causing concern and suspicion to the noble Lord, Lord Clarke of Hampstead, the noble Lord, Lord Hoyle, and—dare I say—the Tories? Of course, we on these Benches would never suspect the Government of such skulduggery.
