Proceeding contribution from Lord Young of Norwood Green (Labour) 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 cannot interpret the indications from the Box; it is like trying to interpret the bookmakers’ tic-tac on a race course. We will get back to my noble friend on that point. Why did I not say that anyway? It is such an easy life at the Dispatch Box. While I sympathise with the intentions behind the amendment, it is unnecessary to achieve the impact that the noble Lord is looking for. In the light of the debate, we will write to the noble Lord with an exploration of the technical points that were raised and an assurance about the contents issue.
