Leave of Absence

Lord Fowler Excerpts

Monday 10th June 2019 Lords Chamber

[The Lord Speaker (Lord Fowler)]

My Lords, later this week I am due to travel to and speak at a special conference in Paris, where I will meet Speakers of second Chambers from across Europe and Africa. The theme of the conference is “Bicameralism: An Asset for Democracy”, and accordingly I seek leave of absence from your Lordships’ House on Friday 14 June.
