Hunting Bill (Procedure)
1:57 pm
Mr Andrew George (Shadow Secretary of State for Rural Affairs & Food, Environment, Food & Rural Affairs; St Ives, Liberal Democrat)
I am grateful for that advice, Mr. Deputy Speaker. The point that I was making about the procedural motion has to do with the extent to which we in this Chamber have the right to question the approach taken by the House of Lords to defending the apparent liberties of alleged minorities. I want to address that issue, but I shall take your advice and save my comments on liberty and minority rights until the Second Reading debate.
