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


Localism Bill

I thank my noble friend for that response. Of course, I shall not press the matter, but I note that he talked in terms of the Secretary of State making regulations which will allow for certain information to be requested. I am looking for a little more individuality than that. However, I shall use this opportunity to add a coda to my point about the in-house service and procurement. I am not asking for an answer now, but I shall put the question on record. In order to take part in it, would the in-house service have to form a separate, new entity in order to be able to bid? That would seem to involve a lot of extra bureaucracy and work, which I do not think any of us would want to see. I shall put my noble friend out of his agony and beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 197FC withdrawn. Amendment 197FD not moved. Amendments 197G and 197H Moved by
