Business question from Dan Rogerson (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 July 2009. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

An unsuccessful independent candidate at the recent local elections in Cornwall has accused the Conservative party of targeting the second-home vote in particular at elections. If that were true, the Conservative party would be acting entirely legally in doing so because those people are on the electoral register, but it has stimulated a debate locally about whether it is right for people with multiple houses around the country to have votes in different places. Will there be an opportunity for the House to debate that?
