Proceeding contribution from Lord Steel of Aikwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Friday, 10 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on House of Lords Reform Bill [HL].
House of Lords Reform Bill [HL]
My Lords, in answer to my noble friend Lord Caithness, no, the provisions in the Bill are definitely not retrospective. They start from the time of Royal Assent, if we ever get to that stage. On the amendment itself, I entirely take the point of the noble Earl, Lord Erroll. I am not enthusiastic about adding bits to the Bill at this stage, but if the House is minded to do so I would be quite happy for Amendment 280 to be carried.
