Proceeding contribution from Lord Addington (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 15 July 2026. It occurred during Debate on bill on Sporting Events Bill [HL].

Sporting Events Bill [HL]

I thank the Minister for her reply and the noble Lord, Lord Parkinson, for his amendment. I should have commented on it, because it is a sensible suggestion.

We are at the start of a positive dialogue about building. The Government had a good idea on which they should have been bolder. These are all things that would have strengthened the Bill if there were in it but are probably not essential. Having heard what the Minister said, and liking the thinking if not all the words, I have no hesitation in withdrawing my amendment.
