Proceeding contribution from Baroness Butler-Sloss (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Local Government Bill [HL].
Local Government Bill [HL]
My Lords, I have one point to make on this. At the preliminary hearing, Devon and Norfolk asked for an expedited hearing so that these matters could be dealt with before the election. The two cities said that they would prefer the risk of by-elections to an early hearing by the court. So much if not all of this has been brought upon Exeter and Norwich by asking the judge for the case to be delayed until after the hearing.
