Proceeding contribution from Gordon Prentice (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 22 March 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Lobbying and Paid Advocacy.

Lobbying and Paid Advocacy

We on this side of the House are all scandalised by the behaviour of the Member for North Tyneside (Mr. Byers). It was a disgrace, and absolutely shaming. I want to congratulate my Friend on saying at the Dispatch Box that the Government—hopefully the next Government—will bring forward a mandatory register of lobbyists. However, I did not hear the Gentleman who speaks for the Opposition commit his party to bringing in a mandatory register.
