Proceeding contribution from Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 October 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Environmental Noise (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2009.


Environmental Noise (England) (Amendment) Regulations 2009

Does the Minister accept that no one in the House is objecting to or complaining about the ambulatory references to the technical matters? That is not the issue. The objection is to a substantial matter that has been identified by the Merits Committee and the European Union Committee. When the Minister proudly says that Defra is first in the field with this, we hope that, having been forced by the pressure of scrutiny into withdrawal and coming up with alternative regulations, it will be the last in the field. Does the Minister understand that?
