Proceeding contribution from Martin Salter (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 4 December 2007. It occurred during Opposition day on Political Parties (Funding).
Political Parties (Funding)
My right hon. Friend is rightly considering further legislation, but when he brought in the Political Parties, Elections and Referendums Act 2000, what prompted him to conclude that that legislation was necessary? We have heard about Chinese heroin barons and about Asil Nadir, but was it the research that revealed that 50 per cent. of peerages and knighthoods went to directors of companies that had given donations to the Conservative party?
