Proceeding contribution from Lord Redesdale (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 20 July 2020. It occurred during Debate on bill on Business and Planning Bill.


Business and Planning Bill

My Lords, I have added my name to this amendment and I will speak in support of it. I shall be brief, considering the time of

night. I am pretty certain that my noble friend will not press this amendment, but I hope that the Minister can give some assurance that, although changes to the legislation will not come about through this amendment, he will agree to meet with representatives of the travel industry to look at how the law can be reformed. The regulations that underpin this area are part of European Union law and, as we leave the EU and start to look at British iterations, this is the perfect time to address the issue. I hope that the Minister can give an assurance that his officials will meet with members of the travel industry to discuss these matters.
