Clause 16 - Super-affirmative resolution procedure
Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill
6:00 pm
Christopher Chope (Christchurch, Conservative)
I agree with my hon. Friend, particularly given that the powers in the Bill are so much more extensive than those in the 2001 Act—as we have discussed extensively during Committee. I cannot see why the Minister will not accept the amendments. Perhaps he will accept amendment No. 1. If he will not accept amendment No. 1, it will again indicate that we must be extremely suspicious about what the Minister referred to earlier in Committee as the Government’s “wider ambitions”.
