HL Deb 20 April 1998 vol 588 c194WA
Lord Braine of Wheatley

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What factors they will take into account in reaching a decision on whether to seek to (a) reject or (b) amend those amendments to the Human Rights Bill [H.L.] made in the House of Lords against government advice. [HL1498]

Lord Williams of Mostyn

We will take into account the representations made to us about these amendments, together with our manifesto commitment to bring rights home and the need for the Bill to be consistent with the European Convention on Human Rights.
