Proceeding contribution from Philip Davies (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Electoral Administration Bill 2005-06.
Electoral Administration Bill
I am not sure that I share the right hon. and learned Lady’s absolute confidence that the current law is as she describes. The point is that the law has been brought into question: it may well allow prisoners to vote, in the light of her Government’s Human Rights Act 1998, so it would be very useful if the position were clarified once and for all through a vote in this House.
