Proceeding contribution from Lord Howard of Rising (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 20 January 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Digital Economy Bill [HL].
Digital Economy Bill [HL]
I agree with the noble Lord, Lord Clement-Jones, that the amendments are very similar. My noble friend’s amendments give us the opportunity to hear a little more about the tribunal. What will happen, for example, if a subscriber or rights holder does not find satisfaction with the appeals process? Will they have the right to a further appeal? Ofcom decisions are subject to judicial review. Would the tribunal’s decision be subject to the same process? If so, what about the cost? Judicial review is an expensive process and not within everyone’s means.
