Proceeding contribution from Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Friday, 23 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on House of Lords (Members' Taxation Status) Bill [HL].


House of Lords (Members’ Taxation Status) Bill [HL]

My Lords, I am sorry, but that would be for the future. No one will become a Member of this House on that basis in the future. That is made quite clear and that is the position of the Appointments Commission. The Bill mainly seeks to deal with the people who are here already. That is why that clause is different. For the people who are here already, it is clearly on that basis.
