Lord Tomlinson

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether a statement has been made under the Human Rights Act 1998 in connection with the Consolidated Fund Bill and the Consolidated Fund (Appropriation) Bill. [HL648]

Lord McIntosh of Haringey

I have made a statement under Section 19(1)(a) of the Human Rights Act 1998 that, in my view, the provisions of the Consolidated Fund Bill and the provisions of the Consolidated Fund (Appropriation) Bill are compatible with the convention rights. A copy of the statement has been placed in the Library of the House.
