Proceeding contribution from Lord Rennard (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 14 July 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Local Government Bill [HL].


Local Government Bill [HL]

Does the noble Baroness accept that the High Court decided that the previous Government had behaved unlawfully, and that no blame was attached to Norwich and Exeter councils? The previous Government clearly did act unlawfully, according to the High Court. Therefore, the previous Government, of whom she was a member and supporter, should accept responsibility for this.
