Proceeding contribution from Baroness Gould of Potternewton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 30 April 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Political Parties and Elections Bill.


Political Parties and Elections Bill

That is an important point. There may have to be occasions when the commission does not participate. That is why I return to the point that we need proper guidance. We need something properly written down about the role of those commissioners and the terms of their appointments to make sure that all these points, which could be fundamental, are actually covered.
