Proceeding contribution from Lord Steel of Aikwood (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 1 March 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on House of Lords (Amendment) Bill [HL].


House of Lords (Amendment) Bill [HL]

The answer to my noble friend Lord Trefgarne is that I wrote to the Deputy Prime Minister after Report, but it was obvious when he appeared before the noble Lord, Lord Richard, that he had not seen the letter. I am afraid that it disappeared into the bureaucracy—I have had that confirmed today—so he has yet to consider the points that I was making to him in much greater detail. So my noble friend must stop teasing me and just accept that these matters have yet to be decided and discussed.
