Proceeding contribution from Lord Norton of Louth (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Friday, 18 May 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Parliamentary Constituencies (Amendment) Bill [HL].


Parliamentary Constituencies (Amendment) Bill [HL]

My Lords, before the noble Lord sits down, he has missed the point that small constituencies and shifting boundaries mean that MPs often do not have the same constituents over a period of time—and that impertinence can work both ways. This is a public general measure and, therefore, each House is entitled to discuss the matter.
