Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill

This started off as a Bill with a benign intent, but it was nonsense, preposterous and deeply dangerous. It been marginally improved over the past two days, but there are still deep concerns about the way in which it will operate, deep concerns about its scope and deep concerns about the Government’s inability to provide a proper veto. There is scarcely more than a caveat— It being Ten o’clock Mr. Speaker put forthwith the Question already proposed from the Chair, pursuant to Order [15 May]. Bill read the Third time, and passed, with amendments.
