Proceeding contribution from Lord Kilclooney (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 2 November 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Electoral Law Act (Northern Ireland) 1962 (Amendment) Order 2009.


Electoral Law Act (Northern Ireland) 1962 (Amendment) Order 2009

I am concerned by the comment that the intention is to increase access for the public to these proposals. I hope that the noble Baroness took note of my comments on what happened in the recent European elections, when the same new advertising policy was pursued and resulted in a dramatic decrease in the number of applications for postal votes.
