Proceeding contribution from Lord Wills (Labour) in the House of Lords on Friday, 1 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Parliament Square (Management) Bill [HL].
Parliament Square (Management) Bill [HL]
I am sorry to interrupt but this is such an important issue and the distinctions are very important. The noble Baroness says that the Government are opposed to overnight encampments in the square and most people would agree with that as a general proposition. Does she see that there might be a distinction between that and, say, an overnight vigil by someone trying to make a specific political point? Does she see that there might be a difference between an encampment and a vigil?
