Proceeding contribution from Lord Addington (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 8 February 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, once again we come back to the idea of knowing what is on the tin—letting people know what they are going to get out of this. This may not be the right way forward but it is definitely a way forward. We need to have some idea of the correct type of classification—what actually is involved. If you have to shoot three video images on a game first then get a film, the film may be the supreme content. This approach may at least be one way of getting there. I am left with the image of the right reverend Prelate’s congregation being rather more colourful than he originally imagined. We shall leave that there. Possibly the pillars in the cathedral obscured certain parts of it. We should have some way of trying to tie these two things together and letting people know what is there when they purchase something.
