Proceeding contribution from Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 5 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL].


Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]

My Lords, I am grateful for all that explanation of the Scottish stuff from the noble Duke—that was the one part of these amendments I was not sure that I understood. I have to say that I went through the rest of them with a fine-toothed comb, because I have a basic principle that, if the Government put forward a long list of technical amendments like this, somewhere in the middle there is something that they are trying to get through without anyone noticing. I do not think that there is in this group; I think that the amendments are entirely sensible, so I have no further comments to make.
