Transparency of Lobbying, Non-Party Campaigning and Trade Union Administration Bill

Debate between Viscount Younger of Leckie and Lord Tyler

Monday 11th November 2013 Lords Chamber

[Viscount Younger of Leckie]

I intend to stick exactly to what I have said.

[Lord Tyler]

I apologise to my noble friend for quoting at such length the comments in the summer of the leader of the Labour Party. The Labour Party and its leader will benefit considerably if this part of the Bill, in whatever form, is enacted as there will then be a much more secure and robust form of record of all the membership of the unions. That is the point I was making.
