My Lords, it is at this moment on some Bills when I have a duty, as Government Chief Whip, merely to give indication of the Queen’s Consent. It is only a procedural matter before we go into the Bill.
I have it in command from Her Majesty the Queen to acquaint the House that Her Majesty, having been informed of the purpose of the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Bill, has consented to place her prerogative and interest, so far as they are affected by the Bill, at the disposal of Parliament for the purposes of the Bill.
Clause 1 : The green purposes
Amendment 1
