Part of the debate – in the House of Lords at 3:30 pm on 27 October 2008.
My Lords, PADA's annual report and accounts were filed late last week. I accept that it is only a short period and it does not tell you very much. If we had a flexible approach, we would not have to wait for specific events or timelines in terms of the production of accounts and reports, or for the annual reporting event that the noble Baroness suggested. We could seek to make statements at appropriate intervals when the relevant information became available.
