Proceeding contribution from Lord Tyler (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 July 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Parliamentary Standards Bill.

Parliamentary Standards Bill

With great trepidation, among such distinguished legal company, may I point out a practical point which I do not think the noble Lord, Lord Pannick, the noble and learned Lord, Lord Mackay of Clashfern, or, indeed, the noble and learned Baroness, Lady Butler-Sloss, have recognised? The report of the Joint Committee on Human Rights, which is endorsed by Members of the other place, and a Government majority in the other place, specifically requires us to look very carefully at this issue now. We cannot just leave it for the future.
