Proceeding contribution from Pete Wishart (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Political Parties and Elections Bill.
Political Parties and Elections Bill
Just to clarify for the Secretary of State, the point is quite straightforward: the same principle that he is trying to apply to the rest of the UK should also apply to Scotland. If someone is not served by the Scottish Parliament—if they are not registered to vote and not domiciled in Scotland for the purposes of Scottish elections—why should they be able to influence or buy election results in Scottish elections?
