Forestry: Independent Panel Report — Question for Short Debate (27 Feb 2013)

Baroness Royall of Blaisdon: ...Commission will be adequately funded. Like the noble Baroness, Lady Parminter, I am concerned about the future of forest services and the retention of its invaluable expertise if there is to be a merger.

Baroness Royall of Blaisdon: My Lords, I think my noble friend has said it all. I am grateful to him for raising the proposed merger of these two bodies. Here we have two small but very important organisations that deal with related areas of law but are distinct in their functions. As my noble friend said, one is a regulator and one is an arbitrator. It is fair to say that everybody who knows the two organisations, the...

Competition Commission and Office of Fair Trading — Question (22 Nov 2010)

Baroness Royall of Blaisdon: My Lords, the merger between the Competition Commission and the Office of Fair Trading will come as a consequence of the Public Bodies Bill.
