Armed Forces Bill

My Lords, I beg to move that this Bill do now pass. This has been my first experience of taking legislation through this House, and the reputation of this House for expertise and thorough scrutiny seems to me to be well deserved. This is an experience that I shall always remember, in large part because of the kind help that I have had from all sides of the House. I believe that we have delivered a Bill that the Armed Forces will be pleased with. Moved, That the Bill do now pass.—(Lord Drayson.)
