Proceeding contribution from Lord Anderson of Swansea (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 29 June 2010. It occurred during Debate on House of Lords Reform.
House of Lords Reform
My noble friend appears to agree that the Government have made a crashing error of judgment in excluding the Cross-Bench Peers, who clearly have a legitimate interest in the outcome of the draft Bill. Will my noble friend therefore not adopt a grandmotherly attitude, listen to the Cross-Benchers herself and be prepared to put forward their view, as they are excluded from the committee?
