Brexit Bill: Parliament scrutiny 'very difficult'

The House of Commons is debating the bill to take Britain out of the European Union.

The Brexit secretary David Davis said the bill provides certainty, continuity and a smooth and orderly exit.

Labour peer Baroness Taylor chairs the House of Lords Constitution Committee. She told Radio 4's World at One that many MP's and Peers will vote against the bill because they believe the way it is written "makes scrutiny more difficult, not less difficult, and it gives the government an enormous amount of potential power."
