Proceeding contribution from Baroness Kinnock of Holyhead (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 6 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Cluster Munitions (Prohibitions) Bill [HL].


Cluster Munitions (Prohibitions) Bill [HL]

I imagine that it will be done in the same way as with the landmines convention. The same processes will be applied and I am sure that benchmarks will be clearly set for the Secretary of State to follow to ensure that the information meets the requirements. I can find out for the noble Lord but, as I said, this is the process that we follow under the landmines convention and, as nothing has gone wrong and no difficulties have been created since the process was implemented, I assume that if we follow the same process, it will be fine.
