Proceeding contribution from Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 8 May 2006. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Electoral Administration Bill.


Electoral Administration Bill

As a non-lawyer, perhaps I may ask the noble Lord, Lord Kingsland, whether he is really serious in proposing this amendment. Are we seriously suggesting that the Conservative Party or other reputable political party would take loans from institutions that are so fly-by-night that they might suddenly close their doors and stop operating in the UK? I advise him to follow the advice of the Lord Chancellor and to stick to the NatWest.
