Proceeding contribution from Lord Lucas (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]
The noble Lord is describing a cumulative effect—all kinds of little ways in which Ofcom will not set out to help the consumer and all kinds of little ways in which someone accused under the Bill will find their life made difficult and tiresome, with a great deal of effort and uncertainty imposed on them in dealing with the allegation. Although each little piece of the argument has its own logic, as a whole it paints an uncomfortable picture, which is tilted too far towards the copyright owner rather than the citizen. I will listen to and read carefully what the noble Lord has said but, one way or another, we will come back to this on Report. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 125A withdrawn. Amendment 126 Moved by
