Proceeding contribution from Baroness Ashton of Upholland (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 10 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Electoral Administration Bill.


Electoral Administration Bill

My Lords, I am extremely grateful to the noble Baroness, Lady Hanham, the noble Lord, Lord Rennard, and others for the enormous effort that they have made on this legislation. We should be of good cheer—it is a good Bill. I know that we have to do more, but we have committed to continue to work post-legislatively in examining these issues. I hope that, in passing the Bill, noble Lords will recognise that this is important legislation and that it has been completed with the help and support of noble Lords on all sides of the House. On Question, Motion agreed to.
