Proceeding contribution from Lord Greaves (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 19 July 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Localism Bill.


Localism Bill

Before the noble Lord does so—this is a slightly cheeky intervention—my noble friend said that the Government did not believe in telling people in great detail how to carry out consultation because they were not experts on it and because it is a fast moving area. Why do they, therefore, in so many parts of the Bill take a very different view when it comes to consultation by local authorities?
