Proceeding contribution from Martin Salter (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 12 March 2009. It occurred during Debate on Use of the Chamber (Youth Parliament).

Use of the Chamber (Youth Parliament)

I invite my hon. Friend to reflect on his exchange with the hon. Member for South Staffordshire (Sir Patrick Cormack). The last recorded policy of Her Majesty's Opposition on reform of the other place was for a 100 per cent. elected second Chamber. Are we to conclude that should there be a Conservative Government, and should there be a 100 per cent. elected second Chamber, the UK Youth Parliament would be thrown out and not ever have another opportunity to debate in that place?
