Proceeding contribution from Lord Birt (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Friday, 15 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on Media: News Corporation.


Media: News Corporation

My Lords, I was going to apologise—I do apologise to the noble Lord, Lord Fowler, and the noble Baroness, Lady Royall. I was misinformed about the likely start time of this debate, and I was here at the time when I was told that it was likely to start. Of course I will respect the will of the House, and I ask the House whether it wishes to hear my views on this important matter. I detect that the mood is that I should continue.
