Proceeding contribution from Lord Roberts of Llandudno (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 28 March 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Public Bodies Bill [HL].

Public Bodies Bill [HL]

I am glad that those on the Front Bench agree. I would say that jaw, jaw is better than war, war. The discussions that we have had over many hours have resulted in concessions. I asked for eight assurances. I received seven. With that result from our discussions, I can claim a Liberal Democrat victory in this Bill; and I will. We still have Third Reading, so if things seem to be getting a little difficult, we can always bring it back then. For today, I beg leave to withdraw my amendment. Amendment 40 withdrawn. Amendment 41 not moved. Clause 5: Power to modify or transfer functions Amendment 42 Clause 5: Power to modify or transfer functions Amendment 42 Moved by
