Proceeding contribution from Lord Henley (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 21 October 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Coroners and Justice Bill.

Coroners and Justice Bill

My Lords, I cannot add much to what the noble Lord, Lord Alderdice, has said. The noble Baroness, Lady Finlay, tabled a similar amendment in Committee that sought clarification of the use of the word "exceptional". Again, the Government had a good long summer break and have had time to think about this, so perhaps they can assist the House on what exactly they mean by "exceptional".
