Proceeding contribution from Lord Wallace of Saltaire (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 2 November 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on European Council.


European Council

My Lords, does the Leader of the House agree that, in a House that prides itself on being different from the other place—playing a different role in a different way—the regular repetition of Statements made in the other place leads to scenes that make us much more like the other place than we want to be; and that this is something that we ought to discuss in relation to how the House conducts its business?
