Proceeding contribution from Lord Willis of Knaresborough (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 9 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Public Bodies Bill [HL].


Public Bodies Bill [HL]

Does the Minister not understand the incredulity of many of us? This is a Bill that deals with getting rid of quangos, yet the Minister’s solution is to set up a quango to create time in order to set up a bona fide agency. Surely the Minister sees that by simply delaying the whole process until the agency is in place, everything can be transferred either to the CQC or to the new agency, all at once, without an interim body.
