Lord Hannay of Chiswick (CB)
My Lords, I am most grateful to the Minister for repeating the Statement. When the Prime Minister spoke at Lancaster House, in a very welcome statement right at the end of her speech she said that both Houses would have an opportunity to pronounce on the outcome. Will the legislation that the Government bring forward encapsulate that undertaking in some form? Will the time available for both Houses to comment on the outcome be sufficient?
Lord Bridges of Headley
I believe we will have sufficient time. On the content of the Bill, I have to say to the noble Lord that good things come to those who wait.
