Proceeding contribution from Lord Beith (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 November 2005. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Electoral Administration Bill 2005-06.
Electoral Administration Bill
An answer to the Minister’s first question is that if people do not provide a signature, they will not get a postal vote. As the greatest concern about fraud relates to postal voting, the proposal would address that specific problem, although it would not deal with wider security problems that must be addressed in other ways.
