Proceeding contribution from Lord Hunt of Kings Heath (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 16 June 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Political Parties: Funding.
Political Parties: Funding
My Lords, I am responding to the noble Lord, Lord Goodhart. He will know that Hayden Phillips, in the work being discussed, suggested incentive payments of £10 provided by the state for every £10 raised by the political parties. We do not think that we are in a position to go forward with state funding for the reasons that I have given. However, we very much welcome anything that we can do to encourage as many people as possible to participate and donate.
