Proceeding contribution from Lord Hill of Oareford (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 18 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.


Education Bill

I am aware of that, and we have discussed that point before. I know that is the case, and I defer to my noble friend who is a very distinguished lawyer, who I think used to do libel. To expect a teacher who finds himself the subject of a malicious campaign to take a libel case on his own account, financially, emotionally or in any other way, is not a practical course of action.
