Proceeding contribution from Earl Attlee (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 31 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Localism Bill.


Localism Bill

May I explain the advantage of Clause 25 and the way that it is drafted? If I was a councillor and engaging, as a layman, with officials who were giving me advice, I would be able to produce the words in Clause 25 and say, ““It says here that I can express a view””, and there would be very little that officials could do to counteract that.
