Proceeding contribution from Lord Wills (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 12 January 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Protection of Freedoms Bill.


Protection of Freedoms Bill

I am very grateful to the Minister and I am reassured by her response. I shall, of course, withdraw the amendment, but could I ask her to do something? She rightly said that there has to be a need for compelling evidence—or concrete evidence, I think, was the expression that she used. Could she contact the Information Commissioner and ask him to produce the evidence that he has to that effect and the problems that he has encountered and why he thinks it is a problem? Perhaps if I tabled these amendments again on Report she could tell the House what the response has been, what evidence there is or whether there is any evidence. With that, I am happy to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 151J withdrawn. Amendment 151K not moved. Amendment 151L Moved by
