Proceeding contribution from Lord Hanningfield (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 16 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Electoral Administration Bill.

Electoral Administration Bill

I thank the Minister for her comprehensive reply which I shall need to examine. There seems to have been extensive consultation on the matter. Sometimes we criticise because there has not been enough consultation and sometimes we criticise because we do not know the results of consultation. In this case we know the results of the consultation. It seems that an overwhelming number of people support what the Government are doing on this matter. We support the principle of what the Government are doing but we shall need to analyse the timing of the dates. In the mean time I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendment No. 52 not moved.] Clause 11 agreed to. Clause 12 [Determinations by registration officers and objections]: [Amendment No. 53 not moved.] Clause 12 agreed to.
