2 Bills not requiring to be brought
to the attention of either House on human rights grounds
Government Bills
2.1 We consider that the following Government bills
do not raise human rights issues of sufficient significance to
warrant us undertaking further scrutiny of them:
- Perpetuities and Accumulations
Bill; and
- Local Democracy, Economic Development and Construction
Bill.
2.2 We wrote to Baroness Andrews, Parliamentary Under
Secretary for State on 10 February 2009, raising some human rights
issues related to local authorities and local democracy.[29]
She replied on 23 March 2009.[30]
We publish this correspondence with this Report to inform parliamentary
and wider public debate.
