Proceeding contribution from Lord Bach (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 October 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on European Parliament (House of Lords Disqualification) Regulations 2008.
European Parliament (House of Lords Disqualification) Regulations 2008
My Lords, I rely on the compromise that was reached between my noble and learned friend Lord Irvine and the noble Marquess, Lord Salisbury, then Viscount Cranborne. It made the number of hereditary Peers 90, plus the two. The House itself, not just hereditary Peers, having agreed that compromise might well not be very pleased to find that that number of hereditary Peers goes down by virtue of hereditary Peers being included in this order.
