Proceeding contribution from Baroness Gould of Potternewton (Labour) 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
I have no option but to stand up and respond to that. I found the noble Lord’s argument on government advertising highly spurious. Are we suggesting that things which the Government have implemented by parliamentary decision, such as the non-smoking or seat-belt laws, should not be allowed to be advertised on television? That would be absolute nonsense. Those are issues that the public have to know about.
