Proceeding contribution from Lord Rooker (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 24 January 2007. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on District Electoral Areas Commissioner (Northern Ireland) (Amendment) Order 2006.
District Electoral Areas Commissioner (Northern Ireland) (Amendment) Order 2006
I cannot comment on the detail of that because the electoral system in Northern Ireland is somewhat different to the one with which I am familiar, because of PR. If I had my way we would be doing the same in England, but I am not getting my way at the moment. The wards are the electoral unit with which the vast majority of people are most familiar.
