Proceeding contribution from Lord Roberts of Conwy (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 23 January 2007. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on National Assembly for Wales (Representation of the People) Order 2007.
National Assembly for Wales (Representation of the People) Order 2007
My Lords, I thank the Minister for the replies to the points that we have raised in the discussion. One point that concerns me, to which he has not replied, relates to the requirement that at least 20 per cent of postal votes returned should be checked by the returning officer. It is not clear to me what happens if the returning officer detects fraud in any proportion of that 20 per cent. At what stage does he order that there should be a 100 per cent examination of all the postal votes cast?
