Public Bodies Bill [HL]

Proceeding contribution from Lord Newton of Braintree (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 23 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills on Public Bodies Bill [HL].
My Lords, I am as delighted as anybody by what has happened on the previous amendment. I am also pleased that a concession has been offered to the noble Baroness, Lady Finlay, though I do not yet know what her reaction to it will be. I bound to say that that leaves me feeling slightly plaintive as the only one to whose modest concerns the Government appear to be unwilling to make any move at all. I have down an amendment in lieu but that is not the one that I am moving. I made it clear to the Minister earlier this morning that I would only move the amendment if it had any attraction to the Government as allowing them to make a move in my direction.
