House of Lords: Police Searches
- Question
- My Lords, what exactly is the fundamental constitutional basis of our privileges? Do they rest on the fact of the precincts of the House being a Royal Palace, on Article 9 of the Bill of Rights of 1689 or on the inherent authority and jurisdiction of the High Court of Parliament?
- Answer
-
My Lords, that is a very interesting question, but one which it is presently above my pay grade to answer.
