I am grateful for the support that the order has received from the three noble Lords who have spoken. The noble Lord, Lord Skelmersdale, talked about the progress that we have made since 1974 on health and safety, and about the important role that the commission and the Health and...

The Grand Committee will be extremely grateful to the Minister for introducing this non-contentious order in his usual careful way. It is, as he said, laid under the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Act 2006, which we on this side of the Committee believe is not used nearly enough. Plenty of...

I wish to begin my remarks tonight by paying tribute to the four firemen who tragically lost their lives a few days ago. I commend the valued efforts of their colleagues and others in searching for the bodies, so that their loved ones may at last have closure. I pay...

This is not an easy area and the Committee is not suggesting that. Our conclusion was that it is important to communicate risk in a way that people can understand, and we compared different types of risk in that way. The problem that the Government and all political parties have...

My Lords, I suppose that I should not be surprised that the noble Lord, Lord Warner, spent half his time talking about health—after all, the Department of Health is his ministry—but I intend to take a more general approach and leave most of the health issues to my noble friend...

All I can say to the right hon. Gentleman is that the Leanne Wood memo must have come as manna from heaven to him. Apart from the memo, what evidence has he of that so-called systematic abuse? We heard from the hon. Member for Rhondda (Chris Bryant) that people in...

: Notwithstanding what I thought was a brilliantly deadpan and ironic speech from the hon. Member for Caerphilly (Mr. David), the highlight of the debate came 40 minutes ago when the right hon. and learned Member for North-East Fife (Sir Menzies Campbell) came into the Chamber, realised that he was...

My Lords, there is a point to this. Its chorus was,"““Accidents will happen, when you least expect them,""““Accidents will happen, time and time again””." No one could have anticipated the explosion at Buncefield. Although it could have been much worse, it still caused serious injury to one person and minor...

I am grateful to the noble Lord. I said earlier that I sit at his feet in terms of his knowledge and ability, not only as a lawyer but also as a politician. So why would I be at all surprised that the noble Lord would know precisely what I would suggest by way of...

I see a great deal of attraction in the phrase ““public benefit”” in that it is understood; I find it immediately understandable. It seems to me to cover almost every circumstance where this rule should apply. I have severe objections to subsection (2) in Amendment No. 13, which is an entirely inappropriate list. Beyond...
