Greater London Authority Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanningfield (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 19 June 2007. It occurred during Debate on bills on Greater London Authority Bill.
My Lords, the Minister said that the 40 confirmation hearings would be too many, but they would be over a period of time. I should have thought that with any reasonable local authority that would not be anything like the number of appointments that members make. I am not on the GLA but, if it did not have much to do, it would give it something to do. I think that 40 over four years is a reasonable number to scrutinise, so I am surprised that the Minister said that.
