Localism Bill

Lord Faulkner of Worcester Excerpts

Thursday 7th July 2011 Lords Chamber

[Baroness Hamwee]

My Lords, I was intending to ask some questions on the clause.

[The Deputy Chairman of Committees (Lord Faulkner of Worcester)]

The Minister has not yet moved the amendment.

[Baroness Hanham]

My Lords, I have nearly finished. I apologise that I have been rather long. In fact, I have only another two lines to read.

The proposed amendment to Clause 85, Amendment 147E, would enable the regulations to include an appeal against compensation decisions under the community right-to-buy scheme. The amendment will strengthen the protection for property owners affected by the scheme. I beg to move.
