Parliamentary Standards Bill

My Lords, I have listened carefully to the noble Lord. He has not yet faced the problem—I imagine that he will—raised by the Joint Committee on Parliamentary Privileges and the Constitution Committee, of complying with Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights. The problem is that if whatever machinery is set up is punitive or determines civil rights and obligations, there must be an independent and impartial tribunal to deal with the matter, or else we will be—as the Joint Committee on Parliamentary Privileges said 10 years ago—in trouble under the convention. Does the noble Lord have a solution to that difficult problem?
