Proceeding contribution from Lord Maude of Horsham (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Public Bodies Bill [Lords].
Public Bodies Bill [Lords]
On the hon. Gentleman's point about the Rural Advocate, it seems to me that rural areas are very well represented in this House. It seems odd that a separate body should be created to be a rural advocate, because it seems to me that it is the duty of Members of Parliament to be the advocate for their constituents. There are many very effective advocates of rural residents and constituents. The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs proposes to consult on the AWB in the autumn. It will be part of a wider consultation package on the future of the agricultural wages committees and the agricultural dwelling house advisory committees.
