Proceeding contribution from Lord Brooke of Sutton Mandeville (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 17 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Political Parties and Elections Bill.

Political Parties and Elections Bill

My Lords, in Grand Committee I moved an amendment which in a sense was overtaken by the events that the Minister explained. The noble Lord, Lord Bach, very kindly offered me the advice of officials if I sought to bring the matter back on Report. I wish to put on record that the officials whose advice was proffered could not have been more assiduous in seeking to advise me. But I decided that it would have been invidious to identify specifically in legislation my concern, and therefore I did not take up the advice.
