Proceeding contribution from Lord Neill of Bladen (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 5 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Political Parties and Elections Bill.
Political Parties and Elections Bill
Would the Minister take a question arising from his reference to Clause 10? I want to know who these officeholders are. It strikes me as curious that they are not required to have a home address in the United Kingdom. That is set out in relation to compliance officers in new paragraph 18 proposed under Clause 10. At line 33 on page 9 of the Bill, new paragraph 18(2)(b) states that, ""the officer-holder’s home address in the United Kingdom, or (if there is no such home address) the office-holder’s home address elsewhere"." Exactly the same thing happens with the responsible person. It seems rather odd that people who have great responsibilities and are discharging important duties do not have to live here.
