Proceeding contribution from Earl of Erroll (Crossbench) 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]

My Lords, perhaps I may take advantage of Committee stage rules, because this is extremely important. We just knocked down a whole lot of amendments from the noble Lord, Lord Lucas, and alternative proposals by the noble Lord, Lord Clement-Jones, on the constitution of the tribunal. We were told that it was not important at that stage, because it was a very early stage of letter-writing and did not require the same level of provision. People are going to have to defend themselves from day one, if these technological measures come in. We will have to review what the Minister said in response to all those amendments before we get to Report.
