Proceeding contribution from Lord Foulkes of Cumnock (Labour) in the House of Lords on Friday, 3 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Scottish Parliament (Candidates) Bill [HL].
Scottish Parliament (Candidates) Bill [HL]
My Lords, I am just coming to that. I said that the rules were decided by my party; I conceded that point. That is no reason why we should not look at changing them. I will come on to the fact that, as Donald Dewar said in the quotation, constituency MSPs and list MSPs have a different role. I object to list MSPs purporting to be constituency Members when they have been rejected by the constituency.
