Proceeding contribution from Lord Tyler (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 16 July 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Parliamentary Standards Bill.


Parliamentary Standards Bill

I am very grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Jenkin. It made me feel slightly less ignorant that he, too, has identified a real problem arising from the letter that the noble Baroness sent us because it seems to re-open this issue and leave it in doubt. Therefore, when she responds to this debate, I should be very grateful if the noble Baroness could put on the record precisely what the Government’s thinking is on this because it seems to be somewhat confused.
