Proceeding contribution from Lord Rennard (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 23 March 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Electoral Administration Bill.

Electoral Administration Bill

I thank the Minister for her reply. My problem with quantifying the number is that the figure I would really like is probably similar to the number of place names in Great Britain. That would be an exceedingly large number and rather difficult to deal with. I wonder what merit there is in this restriction. It seems there is no real merit or benefit in the description but, if we have to have a restricted number, I would rather have none and allow greater flexibility on this. Given that the Minister will consider all those points, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. [Amendments Nos. 118A to 119 not moved.] On Question, Whether Clause 49 shall stand part of the Bill?
