Proceeding contribution from Chris Bryant (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 27 February 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Government of Wales Bill.
Government of Wales Bill
I am not sure whether that is right. In multi-member local government constituencies, people have the right to vote three times for three councillors under the first-past-the-post system. Opinion polls suggest that the number of people who do not use all three votes because they do not understand that they have more than one vote is far higher than the number of people who say that they do not understand the Welsh Assembly voting system.
