Proceeding contribution from Lord Steel of Aikwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Friday, 21 October 2011. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on House of Lords Reform Bill [HL].


House of Lords Reform Bill [HL]

My point is that the all-party committee of the House under the noble Lord, Lord Hunt of Wirral, has already come to a firm conclusion and published a report. By the clauses that we have just passed, we are saying to the Government, ““Take this report up. Get on with it and let’s reduce the numbers””. That is the right way to do it.
