Proceeding contribution from Lord Butler of Brockwell (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 April 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Protection of Freedoms Bill.


Protection of Freedoms Bill

My Lords, I agree with a great deal of what the Minister has said, but would the Government's objectives not be better achieved if they proceeded on the basis that powers would lapse unless a positive case could be made for them, rather than that they should remain unless a case is made to remove them?
