Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Wright (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Political Parties and Elections Bill.

Political Parties and Elections Bill

When the relevant report just referred to was written, I was a member of the Constitutional Affairs Committee, along with the hon. Member for Southampton, Test (Dr. Whitehead). The report makes it clear that the reform will work only if it is a package of measures that hangs together. Does my right hon. Friend agree that what is most disappointing about the Bill is that it deals only with a few of the reforms proposed by the Constitutional Affairs Committee, and that the ones that are not proposed seem to be those that are most inconvenient to the Labour party?
