Regulatory Enforcement and Sanctions Bill [HL]

I am thinking of the possibility that people may want the body they represent to be listed but not the names of the individuals concerned. That is perfectly feasible. Under the noble Lord’s amendment, the names of the people making the representations would have to be listed. Further, if the intention is to expose people who are pushing their own cart in the local authority, as it were, the smart ones will hire others who have nothing to do with it to make the representations. There may be some sensitivity about the names of individuals appearing on a list, but not about the bodies or firms they represent.
