Proceeding contribution from Lord Taylor of Holbeach (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 21 January 2019. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Trade Bill.


Trade Bill

My Lords, I rise to respond to the amendment in the name of the noble Baroness the Leader of the Opposition and to subsequent speakers. I note what the noble Baroness, Lady Taylor, said about the roles of the usual channels and the Government, and the relationship between the two. I also note the comments of my noble friend Lord Strathclyde. However, I cannot allow the speech of the noble Lord, Lord Reid, about the Good Friday agreement, to go without comment. I have no hesitation in saying that what he reported to the House was completely untrue.
