Announcement

The Lord Speaker (Lord Fowler)
My Lords, your Lordships may have noticed a slight delay. It is because of, as they say, technical problems. At the moment, no words can be heard outside the House, which is a slight disadvantage. I will keep your Lordships posted.

The Lord Speaker (Lord Fowler)
My Lords, after careful consideration and consultation, rain has stopped play for the moment. What I suggest is that we have the introductions, and following them, look at the position on communications.
