The Deputy Chairman of Committees (Lord Lexden) (Con)
Lord Cromwell, are Amendments 105 and 106 not moved?
Lord Cromwell (CB)
My Lords, we had a vigorous debate on Amendments 105 and 106, which attracted a lot of cross-party support. I certainly intend to return on Report and look forward to working with the relevant Minister and other Members of this House to improve on them. We had a certain amount of talk about dogs earlier on this afternoon. I should advise the Committee that my wife tells me that I am a terrier in human form. So, in not moving my amendment, I say to the Minister, very gently and in a friendly way, the words of that old Roman mosaic: “Cave canem—beware of the dog”.
The Deputy Chairman of Committees (Lord Lexden) (Con)
After the human terrier, we continue.
