Lord Simon of Glaisdale

My Lords, on behalf of my noble and learned friend Lord Scarman, I beg to move that this Report be now received.

Moved, That the Report be now received.— (Lord Simon of Glaisdale.)

The Lord Chancellor

My Lords, may I just say that my noble and learned friend Lord Scarman has a family anxiety at the moment and that is the reason for his absence tonight. I am sure that the House would wish me to express our sympathy and strong support for him.

On Question, Report received.
