Privileges (20 Oct 2003)

Lord Wigoder: My Lords, my noble friend Lord Steel of Aikwood whispered to me a moment or two ago that I should consider myself fortunate that after my name on the Order Paper there did not appear in brackets the word "deceased". I thank the noble Lord for his comments. My principal regret is that I leave the committee just as I was beginning to get the hang of what was going on.

Expert Witnesses ( 6 Feb 2003)

House of Lords Reform: Joint Committee (14 Nov 2002)

Liaison: Select Committee Report (30 Apr 2001)

Lord Wigoder: My Lords, as the senior member of the Liaison Committee--I reach that position by equating seniority with long service--perhaps I may say, first, how much I and all the members of the committee admired the care and enthusiasm with which the noble Lord, Lord Chalfont, presented his case. Perhaps I may say, secondly, that I was one of the members of the committee who felt a deep sympathy for...

Judges: Safety in Court (17 Jan 2001)

Lord Wigoder: My Lords, is the noble and learned Lord aware that an expensive glass security screen has recently been installed at Cardiff Crown Court and that, according to a report in The Times this morning, it is not proving entirely satisfactory because, apparently, the defendants can no longer hear a word of the evidence?

Matters sub judice (11 May 2000)

Lord Wigoder: My Lords, as a final comment before the noble and learned Lord sits down, may I venture to correct an inadvertent slip on his part? If I heard him aright, he said that the report of the Joint Select Committee was printed on 30th March of this year. It was of course printed on 30th March of last year. As a member of that committee I take an interest in this matter. At the rate of progress we...

Criminal Justice (Mode of Trial) Bill [H.L.] ( 2 Dec 1999)

Lord Wigoder: My Lords, the noble Lord could elect to answer it.

Criminal Justice (Mode of Trial) Bill [H.L.] ( 2 Dec 1999)

Lord Wigoder: My Lords, third time lucky! I find myself in a difficult position in wondering whether to follow the noble Lord, Lord Alexander of Weedon, in his powerful and destructive analysis of the Bill. I think that on the whole I shall not do so. Instead I shall confine myself to my principal objection to the Bill which is not to its contents but to the fact that it represents a further stage in...

Fraud: ECC Report (25 Nov 1999)

Lord Wigoder: My Lords, as a member of the sub-committee I too pay my tribute to the noble and learned Lord, Lord Hope of Craighead, for the fascinating combination of charm and efficiency with which he conducted our proceedings so helpfully to us all.
