Debate between Earl Howe and Lord Hamilton of Epsom

Tuesday 4th February 2020 Lords Chamber

[Earl Howe]

If that does become obvious, then of course it is noble Lords’ duty to bring it to the Government’s attention.

[Lord Hamilton of Epsom (Con)]

My Lords, to return to the point made by the noble Lord, Lord Campbell, about the absence of Ministers on the “Today” programme, I think the “Today” programme has improved enormously. Without having a large number of interviewers interrupting Ministers all the time, it is now much better to listen to.

[Earl Howe]

I take great encouragement from that, and I shall certainly pass my noble friend’s observation on to my colleagues.
