Proceeding contribution from Earl of Erroll (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 15 December 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Protection of Freedoms Bill.


Protection of Freedoms Bill

My Lords, I should like to say a few words on this important issue. Ultimately, it is the householder or the business owner who has to decide whether the official or whoever it might be is allowed in or not. Not all of them are necessarily government officials because there are powers of entry for certain people—for instance, RSPCA officials in certain circumstances as regards animals. But I may be wrong. I just think that there are, which is frightening. I do not know one way or the other.
