Proceeding contribution from Baroness Gardner of Parkes (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 10 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.

Localism Bill

I thank the Minister and the spokesman from the Opposition for their very good and sound comments. I did not mention earlier that in the particular case I referred to one person left a cigarette burning which set fire to one of the garages so there is obviously a bit more of a risk in that regard too. However, I thought that was a red herring and should not be brought up. This is a serious issue. I do not know what will happen in the future. I appreciate the points made about this being perhaps more of a health issue and therefore I am pleased to have aired it today—what a silly remark, to say ““I have aired it”” when we are talking about smoking. I have taken on board the comments that have been made and thank noble Lords very much. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 193 withdrawn. Amendment 194 Moved by
