Talk:Lieutenancies Act 1997

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Debate

i can't find any substantive debate on this Act - it was rather rushed through. it would have been the perfect opportunity to try and restore the mersey and tyne as ceremonial borders. curious there weren't any probing amendments : i suppose the MPs who supported this type of things had more pressing concerns on their mind at the time?

Aha, found the answer: this was just a consolidation bill and as such debate on its provisions were not allowed. Morwen - Talk 23:55, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
