- Question
- My Lords, on these Benches we agree with the noble Baroness. This House and another place are very different. Does the noble Baroness agree—as I think she will—that it would, therefore, be inappropriate to impose the same regulatory system on both Houses, as is faintly proposed in recommendation 26?
- Answer
-
Yes, my Lords, I agree that at present the two Houses are constituted differently and are very different Chambers. Therefore, it would not be appropriate for both Houses to be under the same authority. If this House were constituted differently, that would be a different issue.
