Business question from Tom Greatrex (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 February 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
Business of the House
May we have an urgent statement from the Government on the timing of election counts in Scotland? There have been reports this week of election administrators saying they will not start counting until Friday. They tried that on in the general election and in the last Scottish elections, but it is unacceptable—people in Scotland want to know the shape of their Government as soon as possible. As the Secretary of State for Scotland retains responsibility for elections to Scottish Parliament, may we have a statement as soon as possible so that he can pull the election administrators into line?
