Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) 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 apologise. My department has about £3,000 per local authority available to give to electoral officers to carry out some activities. That does not prevent them doing more because they can do more with their own resources, but that money is available to them.
