Proceeding contribution from Baroness Royall of Blaisdon (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 6 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Protection of Freedoms Bill.


Protection of Freedoms Bill

My Lords, I am grateful to the noble Lord, Lord Selsdon, who raises a very important issue in relation to the use of these powers. I note what he has said and his excellent work leading to the very welcome safeguards that are already in the Bill but would certainly not be there without his work. However, I must tell him that I think he is being a little tough on the excellent people from the Trading Standards Institute. I am sure that, while one person was at tea at 4.30 pm, the majority of them were out doing their business at that time.
