Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hamwee (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 have tabled Amendment 83 in this group, but I feel that I may be letting everyone down because, having seen the government amendments, I do not have great arguments to put forward. My amendment spells out the devolution arrangements, but it is a matter for the legislative bodies in each of the four jurisdictions how they deal with them. As long as we are assured that nothing in the legislation would prevent the arrangements as spelt out in my amendment, I suppose that I am content and I dare say that the Minister can say that the noble Baroness is right.
