Proceeding contribution from Lord Goodhart (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 7 June 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Electoral Administration Bill.
Electoral Administration Bill
My Lords, I have to say that that causes me some concern, because if someone makes a loan of £4,900 on terms that enable the donee political party simply to delay paying interest so that the interest piles up year by year, that could add up to a very substantial sum over a few years. That does seem to be a potential loophole.
